The reason we have weight classes in boxing

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

I'd like to see the cruiserweight limit dropped back down to about 13.5 and then have another limit at about 15 before heavyweight.

Why?

Well, Kovalev can fight at cruiser at some point in the future but is still less likely to fight someone who will be a future heavyweight.

If he were to fight up to the 15st limit then the gap is bridged and the top four divisions are closer related.

It's not so much about the guys at the top. It works both ways.

[brocktonblockbust]

yes that gap would be bridged

[erics44]

Heavyweight has to be the top division

you cant have super heavyweight champions because that will make all previous heavyweight champions not as good

[El Kabong]

Brockton, you DO realize that Tyson Fury has said that Wladimir Klitschko is a "blown up cruiserweight"?

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Yeah do you realise he said that to make sure Klitschko knows that Tyson is naturally bigger than him.

Whether that is actual truth or not I do not know.

[brocktonblockbust]

well fury is a fuckwit then. 6 foot 7 250 pounds is a superheavyweight

There ways to many division right now we really don't need more weight classes i mean look at the man posting Holyfeild not size its talent and right now there is lack of it. We had a sh and it was a joke class and fucking butterbean had the belt i mean shit dude we don't need that shit in boxing. Wald big but he has beat bigger guys with more ease if you ever watch his fights. I wish Usa would get another champ in there but Wilder i am not holding my breath on at all guy 100 years old has barley fought a living oppent.

There have always been big guys. The difference now is that the division is so bad that size isn't the issue. The issue is that nobody is good. Look at haye. He wasn't big and won some rounds against wlad and he isn't even that good. Imagine someone his size who actually fought and was a really good fighter.
