    British heavyweight is exciting with Fury, AJ and Haye.

    The overall standard is not as high as 70's or 90's but that is not a criticism.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Even if you discredit Ali's era, the mid to late 90's was certainly better?

    Lennox
    Evander
    Bowe
    Tyson
    Golota
    Ruddock
    Bruno
    Tua
    Ike
    Mercer
    Briggs
    Moorer
    Morrison

    Every single one of those guys, were they coming up now, would have people talking, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a few contenders.

    Totally agree and you know nobody today would make the grade if they had to scrap that lot. I doubt anyone from the seventies makes it through either.

    The potential is there with that group and add Ortiz but if I was a betting man I bet we don’t see any of them fighting each other. Fury would likely be the most willing of all the participants. You don’t need to risk anything. Look at Wilder. The system is set up to function on mediocrity. These kats can become millionaires and never fight a threat while calling themselves world champions.
