That's because the heavyweights simply suck right now. They throw 20 punches a round and get tired. If you want to have some fun, watch any current heavyweight fight and then watch a 90s Evander Holyfield fight and the difference is like night and day. 250lb dudes with beer guts. Name 10 current heavyweights who have six packs. It's like the HWs don't even train. That's one thing lighter weights always had: They would be unable to make weight if they didn't train.
Anthony Joshua, Wladimir Klitschko, Deontay Wilder, Malik Scott, Joseph Parker, Antonio Tarver, Bryant Jennings, Amir Monsour, Gerald Washington, Charles Martin, Shannon Briggs.
I'm sorry mate, Anthony Joshua might be 250 pounds, but he certainly got a better 6pack as you for example.

It's sad when Briggs has to be used as part of any current HW list. That speaks volumes.

Go ahead, remove the name and the list is still correct, but nice try

Do you guys feel Wilder is a deserved world champ? How many in the top 10/15 fighters could cause him real problems - I can think of at least 3/4.
I personally like the LHW division atm and the prospect of Kova/Ward/Stevenson/Beterbiev all mixing it up with each other is exciting.

Cruiserweights are where its at. An added bonus is that you know that the fighters have the option to go up a weight and challenge for the heavyweight title which at the end of the day remains the most prestigious weight.

No it isn't. Heavyweight Tarver doesn't have a six pack.

Add Mairis Briedis, David Haye, and you know, it doesn't even really matter, Povetkin or Fury would beat any sixpack that isn't a heavyweight out there with ease.

To me its still welterweight. I'm getting impatient though as the best guys seem to always avoid each other. Pacquiao, Bradley, Thurman, Brook, Porter, Spence, Khan, etc. Crawford is new to 140 but is game enough to move up to fight Manny. Lots of good match-ups to be made.

How many of them (even the fit ones) can average more punches thrown than the average 80s-90s HW?

Surprise me, show some numbers.
TBH I don't think Mohammed Ali of back in the days would have had any chance against Anthony Joshua, and neither did Mike Tyson, or whatever heavyweight of back in the days you come up with, but if you think else, go ahead, show me the numbers.

Dumb persons like you simply don't understand what they read, or talk about and blame others for it.
Sadly you'll probably never realise this, but if you don't like it, go back to school if you aren't any more and do something about it.

Do you honestly believe Anthony Joshua would beat Muhammad Ali?
And that is how you spell his name.
