Yea, i believe that too... But, until then we got to watch a poor division suffer... The heavies have always been the biggest and best division in boxing but now look at how things change...

He just might lend some credence to the "all the best HWs are playing ball" theory if he keeps it up.Originally posted by BostonGuy View Post
Right now Eddie Chambers is the best HW in the world not named Klitschko.Comment

Deontay Wilder = Michael GrantOriginally posted by blackirish137 View Post
Here's a video of the weak chinned Wilder getting KTFO by Russian Evgeny Romanov...The KO is at 1:50 of the video.
Russia completely dominated the Americans in ALL weight clases.

Yeah, Im not overly impressed with Wilder either. Dont expect much out of him.Originally posted by Steelhammer2010 View Post
Just remember a good amateur does not = a good professional. Although whats his name...Lomenchenko? THAT guy I expect a lot out of. he looks like talent that could translate to the pros
Yea, Ive seen him. not overly impressed. Mostly just a big, strong guy. which is a nice change, but thats about all I see. I expect him to be about as good as Derric Rossy, Id be surprised if he got farther than that.Originally posted by BostonGuyComment

Never was a real fan of Deontay Wilder. I think people are hyping him up because he's the closest thing to a decent American HW. But there's no telling what would happen once he gets caught flush. I mean look at David Haye, who had a suspect chin in the amateurs.Originally posted by Steelhammer2010 View PostComment

I believe the dropoff of cruiserweight and HW boxers in USA is because any kid who has size growing up and is athletic is going to be in baseball, basketball or football, by the time you get done with that sport , they're already 18-24 so it's too late for boxing, we'll see how seth mitchell does. my son just turned 6, he will be a heavyweight, search Ty Kana on youtube, we think he's doing great considering he really doesn't even care about boxing but he does it because I got the bags at home and I take him to the gym with me. I really hope he sticks with boxing but he loves baseball and football, that's the problem in the USA, the kids don't have boxing stars to look up to on TV, all they see is NFL, MLB, and the NBA. Boxing is dead unless you look for it. We all have to come to this site to get our info. we won't find it on sportscenter. I wish we could hear about vanes calling out the division, or how klitchko brothers call out haye after he talked all that junk and now he's a coward, you just don't see it on sportscenter so the kids don't care about boxing. As for my son, I'm trying to get him involved because I think it's a great sport, I like the fact that you can't drink or smoke or you will suck. alot of kids who play football/baseball still party hard, in boxing you can't. we'll see what happens, I took him to Savannah's in Houston this summer, he doesn't realize how bad ass it is that he's learning this sport and getting to be around some of the greatest fighters in the world who train there. I don't see kids his size going into boxing, that's why I think the HW in the USA can't win a belt and won't for a long time. what do you think?Comment
