The beginning of a new age in Heavyweight Boxing

[Kirkland Laing]

...I just want to say there has only ever been 1 perfect heavyweight and even he get's hated on.

Just because a guy loses a fight doesn't mean he's a bum and just because a guy wins a few fights it doesn't make him great.



That being said, Wladimir Klitschko is the best heavyweight right now in a competitive division. Honestly we don't really know what else is out there.....most of these guys haven't been put to the fire, Wladimir has and sometimes he's come through OK and sometimes he hasn't but the good outweighs the bad in my opinion.

The Sunderland (North) 25-40s 5-a-side football league is competitive too.

Bert Sugar says the heavyweight division isn't dead....and I respect his opinion.

Wladimir wants to be the ONE true heavyweight champion and this is a stepping stone to become that...you can't do anything but praise him for trying to unify

Bert Sugar is working for HBO. Let's see where he ranks him the next time he writes a book on the heavyweights.

Klitschko still won't get anybody's attention if he does become unified least worst heavyweight because he just isn't good enough to make people want to watch. I'm off for a nice weekend and won't even watch the recording if it's a decision. If the heavyweight division can't get people like me interested it's going to remain dead and buried to the general public.

Bert Sugar doesn't work for HBO, he's a boxing WRITER....does HBO put out a magazine? Last time I checked they didn't

Name me ONE heavyweight you appreciated

....hey some people think tofu is the best stuff on Earth but you won't catch me agreeing with them

....fine and he's excited about a heavyweight fight....he doesn't HAVE to be


But anyway you don't care about the fight and the division then don't watch it and don't post about it because if you "aren't intrested" then why would anyone be "interested" in reading your opinion about it?


So let's just not waste everyone's time and you mozy along to other topics that are more interesting to you

He's speaking as an employee. Let's see what he and others have to say in a few years about the current heavyweights.

If somebody is posting a thread about the dawn of a new age in heavyweight boxing I have the right to an opinion on that. Just don't bother reading my posts if you don't like reading what I'm saying.

I do praise him for wanting to unify. Then he can be the linear/undisputed champion. And hopefully then he can tell the boxing groups to go to hell.

Exactly! If there was just ONE title then things would be so much easier.

Wladimir has 3 belts and 2 supply a steady flow of mandatories who are usually either bums or only recognized highly under that sanctioning body because that's the only one they pay dues to.

BOXING as a whole would be better off with a ranking system like that of College Football or Basketball.

Wladimir right now has to fight the 2 mandatories and then try and schedule a unfication bout when either Chagaev or Peter/Maskaev winner has a free spot available....that's a lot to get right at the correct time.

Wladimir is the unofficial Heavyweight Champion of the World right now....and due to the other sanctioning bodies we have no idea how to fill out the top 5 much less top 10
