    Historically speaking we are due another Tyson type of Heavyweight relatively soon , as there is a history of that type of fighter coming every 20-30 years (just look at my signature to see what I mean). So hopefully that fighter will emerge in the next few years, although I do agree with the assertion that Ike Ibeabuchi could have possibly been the spark that this division needed. Hard to tell as he left the scene just when we were finally starting to figure out what type of fighter he was going to be.

      Some have said that even if there is a dominating heavyweight on the scene it would be fallacious to consider him the strongest man in the world or the best fighting man in the world. I myself am not decided on this, but from the historical perspective in the past, it would seem that this was the view of the majority of the people in the world when boxing was at it's best. I would like to know whether you guys' opinions on whether or not the view commonly held back then was true of false.
