How weak is the heavyweight division really?

[rjj tszyu]

The real problem for HW boxing is that casual fans and the man in the street dont know who the world champion is,so they lose interest.


In times gone by when the HW division has been weak the champ has still been a house hold name.

Multy world champions at the same weight is killing boxing IMO.

I totally agree. Boxing needs someone like David Haye who is young and marketable to become undisputed heavyweight champ and boxing will be big news again and the heavyweight champion will again be THE elite man in all sports!

The HW title used to be the greatest prize in sports now its been split more ways than a birthday cake.

Boxing has got to be the only major sport in the world where the so called governing bodies actualy make the sport worse and make less people watch it.

The saddest thing of all is that the geaeral public still love a good boxing match,its just they dont understand who the champs are any more and are totaly confused to the point they dont care.
