The obsession with certain fighters on here cannot be denied and im in no doubt if say Mayweather was beat then "devastated" would be an apt description,i dont need to name names its obvious but some would be in denial(he was robbed if it was on the scorecards) some flaky fans would drop him like a brick and move on to the next big thing,either way people can be blind to the factsReggieDiggs wrote:The standard might plummet, but the fun would only be beginning. I don't see the big deal with Wlad losing if it were to happen. He's gonna be gone either by retiring or losing soon any damn way. It'd just be a better passing of the torch if someone KO'd him. I mean look at 147. Floyd is WAY above the other guys there. When Floyd is gone (either by retirement or losing) that division is gonna get a whole lot more interesting too. 168 would be more interesting without Andre Ward (lol even though he ain't exactly there now, but I mean he is still the #1 168lber & the #2 guy would really be about the #5 guy, with #2 thur #4 being vacant, if we were ranking by true talent).handsofstone wrote:I'm sure some of the people on here who want Klitschko KO'd to "breathe new life into the HW division" would be devastated if a prime Tyson was KTFO leaving Douglas,Bonecrusher,Ruddock,Tubbs and co to dominate the division
Wlads dominance is a bit boring but if theres anyone to blame,its every other HW for not being good enough to mount a decent challenge,when Wlad does lose/retire no doubt the standard plummets
And idk about being "devastated" when anyone loses lol. I think thats a bit dramatic if you'd feel that why if Wlad got KO'd & thats why you're bringing that up. Shocking...okay I can see that.
Ive got favourite fighters myself of course but im not sad enough to try and discredit every other boxer on the planet to favour my favourites worth
I agree with the HW scene being more interesting when Wladimir moves on but eventually we'll all get pissed of with the poor standard we're witnessing and if Klitschko retires as champ,i can see the fans demanding him comeback to pull the HW scene out the doledrums in 5 years time
It will be more competitive when Wlad's away but i'd rather see Barcelona FC put on a masterclass against someone than watch 2 crap teams play each other just coz its competitve,at the top level i want to see class,if it cant be from both men then 1's better than none
