Cruiserweight scandal in Germany...

[amat]

CC on the pics....BTW I think the whole division is a scandal...GET RID OF IT

You kidding? That is one of the most exciting divisions in all of boxing right now. Some of the champs have been plagued by inactivity but that is a great division.

I'd have to disagree Amat,O Neill Bell v Mormeck was a good fight but other than that,I have seen nothing from this division and that situation does not look like it'll change anytime soon!

Strongly disagree. The best thing about the cruiserweights is that all of the top fighters have fought and are fighting each other. I mean, disregarding the prospects who haven't yet broken the mold in the division (Enzo, Haye, Banks)

1. O'Neil Bell (26-1-1)
2. Krzysztof Wlodarczyk (37-1)
3. Steve Cunningham (19-1)
4. Jean-Marc Mormeck (32-3)
5. Guillermo Jones (33-3-2)

That's ESPN's top 5 in regards to the cruiserwights. ALL of these guys have fought someone else from this list. Bell fought Mormeck. Wlod fought Cunningham. Mormeck fought Bell and Jones fought Cunningham aswell. Outside of maybe the featherweights and the lower divisions, this isn't happening in any other division. The Mayweathers aren't fighting the Hattons, Margaritos or Cottos. The heavyweight champions aren't fighting each other. Calzaghe isn't interested in Kessler. Yet the cruiserweights are a division in which everyone is fighting everyone. Then you have a new blood that is being injected that have a lot of people excited. Haye and Banks are two of the better prospects in all of boxing and the are both cruiserweights.

I think the only thing holding the cruiserweights back is TV. HBO isn't really quick to put a cruiserweight title fight on BAD and that doesn't leave many time slots for a cruiserweight title fight that someone like Don King or Warriors boxing would like. Showtime has been good about pushing cruiserweights but it hasn't been enough thus far to help save the division from inactivity. But when they are active the best are fighting the best.
