Thompson wants to fight Fury

[Silkeyjoe]

No weight. A genuine heavyweight is one whos fought there all his career or who moved up because he couldnt make the lower weight anymore. Would you call Mayweather a genuine MW just because he could make 160?

Genuine is probably the wrong word, natural HW.

Would you say Chris Arreola is a genuine 250lb fighter? What should so eones genuine weight be? What should there genuine body fat percentage be to get to their genuine weight?

I think you are getting confused. There are genuine heavyweights and then there are big heavyweights.

Heavyweight is the only weight division with no cap so you will get big fighters in that weight, whereas if Floyd did fight at middle, his opponent could only weigh up to 160lb.

If Adamek can fight, look in shape at 217lb, beat up, stop earlier etc genuine heavyweights then he is a fucking genuine heavyweight!

Muhammed ali was a genuine heavyweight. He would not compete at cruiser today but Adamek weighed more than he did and was in shape!

Arreola will soon be fighting for the WBC title against little fatty Stiverne. Adamek probably beats the both of them and hes not a genuine heavy!

I doubt very much Arreola beats either of them judging by his latest performances.

I would think Ali would fight at Cruiser for at least some of his career if he was around nowadays
