time for another weight class?

[blegit]

Well, on one hand, a larger heavyweight could have an advantage over a smaller one if he is in good shape, has the right amout of muscle mass, has a long reach, and a height advantage.

Of course the height advantage will make it harder for smaller opponents to land head shots. The long reach will possibly make it hard for the smaller opponent to get on the inside.

Really Im sure most of us are only thinking about the Klitschko brothers here, since they are the only ones who seem to carry all the goods... which isnt usually the case for such large fighters.

I think when more boxers like those 2 slowly find their way into boxing then eventually some adjustments might have to be made. I think physically, the Klitschkos are physically ahead (before we even consider their skill) of the game. But perhaps they are a preview of what the heavyweight division could expect in the future. Just speculating.

I can agree with that. Maybe when we have more talented giants like the Klitschkos we can go down this road. Right now if people think there is no talent in the heavys now then think about how dismal a super heavy weight class would be.
