#1 People in boxing need to worry about the NOW and not keep looking back to the past! Appreciate what we have, appreciate the Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s, Bernard Hopkins', Klitschko's, Pacquiao's, Marquez's and all while they are still around!
#2 In the heavyweight division it's not that the Klitschko's aren't dominant it's that they have no close competition, when was the last time either of them had some adversity in a fight? Vitali got buzzed by Corrie Sanders in 2004 and Wladimir got cut by Calvin Brock in 2006, that was the last time he had any adversity in a fight. And guys like Sultan and Chagaev basically give up or run away after getting popped a couple times. We can only hope that younger guys can at least TEST these Brothers.
Boxing fans no matter how great boxing is, are always saying "We used to have _____", "Remember when _____"....well I'm telling you appreciate what we have, because some guys are pretty damn good right now and other than that we're stuck with them until something better comes along.
completely true, if your reffering to every division other than heavyweight
mayweather, pacquiao, hatton, jones, hopkins, marquez, cotto, kessler, froch, dawson -we still have our superstars
but where heavyweight is concerned......c`mon lyle even youve gotta accept its a complete mess
one dangerous horrible bloke
