Why are people so hyped over a lightweight competition? Where are the beasts like Ivan Drago?
>>77878592
Lightweight competitions are usually more interesting because the action is faster.
Heavyweight got killed by Klitschkowinslol and that Fury victory.
Here he is
>>77879498
Heavyweight got killed by Tyson raping a whore and Lennox being the biggest pussy to ever play the sport.
>>77879372
Heavyweight is were the real action is at, I doubt that a lightweight manlet could win in a Boxe fight with a heavyweight champion.
>>77879546
No shit, that's why they have weight classes.
>>77879546
>I doubt that a lightweight manlet could win in a Boxe fight with a heavyweight champion.
was this supposed to be profound?
yeah lightweight fights are boring prancing standoffs
also joshua vs klitschko was the best fight in years, so there
im not up to date on boxing but these super hyped matches always seem like two really short and lightweight guys. why is it never normal sized guys or big guys?
>>77879565
>>77879617
I dunno, some people believe that a lightweight could beat a heavyweight due to the speed factor, I tought that was what the burger was talking about.
heavyweight has been a hugging competition in the last 10ish years
>>77879666
see
>>77879642
for a hyped fight between heavyfights that actually delivered and was a great spectacle
>>77879682
Only /v/ and /tv/ think that dex > str.
>people tell me may is the best boxer ever
>watch his matches
>half of it is just getting a punch in and running away
>apparently he picks and chooses his fights all the time and doesn't really right anyone he doesn't have a guaranteed win against
>hear about how boxing is pussified shit now with too many regulations and ref interference
Why and I supposed to take this guy seriously?
>>77878592
Andre Ward could TKO your favorite heavyweight mma fighter before he starts his "ground and pound" antics.
>>77879546
lol
the fuck?
>>77880108
>apparently he picks and chooses his fights all the time and doesn't really right anyone he doesn't have a guaranteed win against
pretty sure that's been every champion's MO for decades.
>>77880262
why are they allowed to choose?
>>77880314
because there are 39 federations that can't agree on anything so all the power is with the champion
>>77880108
Nu-boxing is shit and if anyone ever tells you otherwise it's BS. It's all about prancing around the ring like a fag and abusing some gay scoring system to win the match. I wouldn't care if you were 100-0, if this is how most of your "fights" play out you are an overrated hack.
>>77879642
Why wasn't that fight as hyped as Mayweather-McGregor one then
>>77878592
Boxing fell for the flippy manlet meme
>>77880314
>>77880341
this
boxing isn't the nfl, nba, etc. there is no commissioner or 'league' office to control it all. 2 people's teams agree on a fight and they fight.
>>77880892
because people are retards
>>77880892
Basically because only non Americans were involved. The fight was also in Europe.
Mayweather is American and MMA is basically an American sport so they shilled that shit hard in America.
So, you obviously haven't watched any of Anthony Joshua's or Deontay Wilder's fights.

Meant to reply to>>77879695
>>77880108
Honestly, the fight with paq could've gone either way
>>77880892
>implying hype/media attention is a measure of quality in this day and age
>>77880918
kek
>>77879546
wow your on to a breakthrough buddy!
>>77879546
this guy is a communist monkey.
>>77879372
What is things that aren't true?
>>77878592
Size doesn't really matter in a fight. It's all about skill and training.
>>77889582
This. It's the whole reason boxing doesn't have weight clas-
>>77889669
Dude, force comes from aligning your chakra and meditating your chi
>>77879534
>play the sport
My favorite weightclass is light heavy or super middle. They are lanklets with decent power but still small enough to be technical.
>>77878592
I must break you
>>77878592

>Where are the beasts like Ivan Drago?
They retired and became politicians on their eastern euro shitholes
>>77878592
Cruiserweight is better atm.
>>77878592
His gf was a real qt in rocky iv
Heavyweight boxing is boring, it's basically a leaning-simulator most times.
>>77879372
Aren't heavyweight fights more likely to end in knockout?
>>77878592
Lennox Lewis retired before he could mop the floor with either Klitschko brother.
>>77892381
>simulator
That doesn't make sense m8
Watching lightweight and middleweight boxing is like watching the special olympics.
>>77879498
>Heavyweight got killed by Klitschkowinslol
But he's gone now
Would Floyd have been able to deal with Ivan Drago?
>>77894707
We're entering the same era as Post-Ali and Pre-Tyson era.
We literally now need to wait for a champion to rise.
>>77878592
I would be hyped af for a deontay wilder vs anthony joshua
Those guys are heavyweights but they are fast and technical, plus decent cardio.
>>77879534
>play the sport
You don't play boxing
>>77894934
>Windmill Wilder
>technical
LMAO
>>77894949
tell that to mcgregor
>>77894956
I'm a newbie at boxing, I'll give you that.
But wilder vs Joshua would be a good fight, wouldn't it?
>>77894769
>super welterweight vs. juiced-up heavyweight that would make Barry Bonds look clean
I'd say he's got a puncher's chance.
They should just do away with weight classes. Why do I care who can win between two weak manlets? I watch sports to see athletic freaks of nature, not the "w-well they're the best of their own subset that aren't the best!" You may as well watch women's sports at that point, or have an under six foot basketball league
>>77878592
why is dolph so underrated? his body is very aesthetically pleasing.
>>77894966
Boxfags BTFO
All it takes for heavyweight to be considered the weight class to watch is a dominant black american with an interesting personality to market as the next Tyson/Ali.
>>77903977
Why do you need Americans to be involved for a sport to be relevant

>>77906137
most people most money and control the conversation for the most part. Should be obvious if you aren't retarded
>>77895091
obviously yes it would be a fight between 2 champs with KO power. The problem is everyone in both camps knows that too and they want to get paid.
>>77903094
It's pretty easy to ignore the other divisions if you don't want to watch them
