    The division has always been based on quantity over quality but that fact just happens to really standout today. Its so robotic its hurl worthy. Its like watching a human bowling alley resetting the same 10 pins.
    Robotic just about sums it up. Brother I dropped off the 'Heavyweights are the engine of the sport' short bus years ago when I realized how many sensational jr Welters I was missing . Indeed the depth of the division is weak and the crown jewel up until weeks ago was shunned by the premier networks. People want variety, they want the unexpected and when talking heavyweights they want risk takers, fire starters and explosions. If not from the top than at least from the co stars insisting they belong but only tip toeing there way up.

    Its really starting to piss me off that I cant REP you. That is just fk'd up. Anyway same here. Its been a joke since 1865 and yet has been given top billing. It gave me hope growing up that size didn't matter

    Its always been the dog stool of boxing but its just I have never stepped in one as bad as this. Its not just the stink, its the consistency. Rightly or wrongly that seems to reflect on its champions. You know, like any other division lol.
