i really think the title heavyweight champ has decrease. It use to be a huge accomplishment world wide to be heavyweight champ. Fighters fight 15 rounds brutally to gain that title. and before that they train like mad mans to keep in good shape.

now a days we have fat heavyweights slow and no skills heavyweights. its sad to see bums today that would of been killed by top 20th heavy in the past become heavyweight champ in our time today.
CC#14 on me Julius well thought thread here....
And I'm with 'ya on the whole decline of the title Heavyweight Champ. certainly it's lost meaning theres is no doubt in that and untill we have an Undisputed Champ. it will continue to loose meaning. IMO
yea we really really need an undisputed champion. The title Heavyweight champion of the world use to be the proudest accomplishment for a man.
it was! the HW champ WAS the highest honor in sports universally!
