I love the heavies that is my division but I feel like I don't know them anymore. :dunno: Peter looks slower than the ButterBean to me! :doh: And like he could not go many more rounds than the Bean.

 

Ok, I will.



Not.:tease:

Here are the top-10 heavyweights picked from fightnews (I dropped Valuev out just to even the scales) and nine guys Muhammad Ali faced in his championship reign in the 70s and their weights from their lasts fights

Modern hevyweights (aka "few very big guys")

Wlad 238
Chagaev 229
Maskaev 243
Peter 251
Thompson 246
Povetkin 227
Ibragimov 219
Briggs 273
Dimitrenko 253
Virchis 249

average weight 242,8 lbs


Ali and his opponents (aka guys of modern size). I took Foreman and nine guys following him so the list doesn't include Leon Spinks who was -200 lbs and wouldn't get a licence these days

Ali 217
Foreman 220
Wepner 225
Lyle 219
Bugner 230
Frazier 215
Coopman 206
Young 209
Dunn 207
Norton 218

Average weight 216,6 lbs

So there is 26,2 lbs difference between the average wight of these challengers. Just think how many weight classes that is in boxing. Is it a coincidence that the heavyweight limit is now also 25 lbs higher than it was back then? Are the small guys not allowed to participte because they would expose these fatsos perhaps?

Then make a comparsion between 70s and 40s, see the results and think, if it still is a coincidence and size does not really matter

 

Add another stat there and all will become clear - average body fat percentage. Im guessing the combined muscle mass of the two lists would be very close and what difference there is can be accounted for by idiots like Briggs following bodybuilding routines which are USELESS to a boxer.

 

Sure. Just like fighters got "fatter" from 40s to 70s. Just like pretty much all athletes have become fatter.

So why isn't there a 200 lbs KO puncher who would train and knock out all these guys since it would be so easy? Just one guy? One guy in the whole fucken world who would decide to train unlike everybody else does?

 

David Haye :bears:

He'll demolish your big, beloved, robotic Euro bums.

There could well be. Haye for example. Who has tried Ugo? :doh: Brock is not a big puncher, the germans NOT, lets reserve judgement, wait and see.

 

David Haye is gonna get laid the fuck out after eating a few shots from "Touch of Sleep"

 

Watching Haye on Saturday reminded me of when I first saw Hamed on US TV (HBO)!!

Lots of hype knocking out 2nd rate bums,but once he stepped up his shit,lost badly and was never seen ever again::

I definatley see Haye in the same exact light as Hamed!!

 

TOTALLY agREED...

N Terms of Lighthearted BRAVADO, ACCENTS & the Utter BELIEF N Their Punching Power, Haye & Prince R VERY Similar...

Like Hamed, Haye has HUGE Legs, which is No Doubt where the Bulk of his Power GENERATES From...

Like U, REED was INSTANTLY Reminded of Prince, Afterwards...Haye was Sooooooooo RELAXED During his Ringwalk, REED Half Expected him to Start Dancing...



REED

 

Is there a Barrera @ heavy? :dunno:

 

No but there was a Carl Thompson at Cruiser.

 

So, Haye isn't Hamed, because Haye's fought on and gotten better.

POINT GAME. HA!

 

Yep, he's already lost and came back. He's no pussy like Hamed.

 

Now I'm more confident of Haye's potential success at heavyweight :bears:

 

LOL he's gonna drop like a stack of bricks as soon as his chin gets tapped.

 

It's a possibility, but knowing that's your stance has given me more hope :tease:

 

I just got his name I think. Is it like street speak? "Damn, yo, he D Man"? Am I right>

 

You nailed it :bears:


Actually its my initial.. but either way..

 

David Haye will be the next World Heavyweight Champion.

 

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :bears:
