Size Limit on Heavyweights?

[Lance Uppercut]

In his heyday Mike Tyson was 5'11 and fought at 216 lbs. Is there any doubt that Tyson would mop the floor with Valuev?

We have a Super Cruiserweight division in Australia which is 86kg to 95kg. you guys will have to figure out what that is in lbs.

You damn outsider's with your Keys and Grams. Damn it let me think. UMMM yeah that's what I said 209 lbs is 95 key's. So we're on the same page.

If we increase the weight limit for heavyweights, imagine the physiques of those fighters considering how bad they are now. Some of them don't even look like athletes, let alone boxers.

Who is going to top valuev? some guy 7 foot 7 weighing 400 pounds? the heavyweight division is a circus freak exhibition.

That's because it can be, imagine Valuev againsed the likes of Lewis, Bowe, Holmes, Foreman, Holyfield, Tyson or Tua? even Moorer, McCall, Bruno, Ruddock etc.....christ when you name all these guys you realise what the division is missing....some proper talented fighters. They would all smack that lanky fuck to next year.

I'm sick to death of these fat fuckers with piss poor footwork who can't even slip punches properly or even work off a jab, they match these guys with a KO in mind "er yeah, he hits hard, he has shit defense, should end in a KO". It's still not exiting though because most heavies are fucking shit. I can go round the back of a pub and see the same shit.

Rant over

When and IF Valuev decides to fight a REAL heavyweight he'll get his ass handed to him.

Wladimir and Vitali and any other power punchers would be tough for Valuev to beat. Valuev already lost to Ruslan Chagaev who is not a very big guy.
