The Heavyweight Division: Now we are starting to get somewhere!?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
Klitschko by KO

Fury by KO

Scott by TKO

I'm going with my heart with Seth Mitchell. I don't care how he wins.

Thompson by TKO. I still belive in him.

Bryant Jennings vs Andrey Fedosov should be good too.

Joe Hanks vs Andy Ruiz Jr might also be fun.

These are good matchups but the fighters are still mediocre...imagine a few years back during the end stage era of tyson-lewis when heavyweights like micheal grant and chris byrd and rachman were regarded as almost b grade....fighters that would have almost cleaned up now....no doubt there is a big void thats been there for quite some time....

For me the good fights here are haye fury and thompson price.......haye fury WILL be entertaining regardless of outcome......price should beat thompson in the rematch but i wouldnt be too suprised if thompson outpoints him this time or goes the distance.

(rate fury for going in with haye but another injury for haye might conveiniently surface prior to the bout)

Chisora is not fit to be mentioned on a serious boxing question. he is a disgrace to boxing and young boxers learning this great scientific way of fighting.

Fury and Haye will be worthy of watching. I hope young Fury wins he is the opposite to Chisora for all the right reasons.

All those guys are garbage, even for the heavyweight division. The only good one is Wladimir Klitschko.

How is that getting somewhere?

Malik Scott is barely know in the U.S. main stream.

Some big fights are on the horizon in the heavyweight division

Biggest of all is Povetkin vs Wladimir Klitschko. Povetkin is the most legitimate contender out there at the moment and its good to see this fight finally happen (provided they sort out the drug testing issue)

Haye vs Fury in August is expected to be announced soon. This will be a huge event in England and is expected to earn both boxers at least 5 million pounds each. Whoever wins this will be in pole position to fight Vitali.

Chisora vs Scott. When Wilder pulled out I was disappointed but Frank pulled it out of the bag when all the critics were on his back, by landing an even better opponent, Malik Scott. This fight will generate a lot of attention from the US and is a fight American fans can get excited about.

Seth Mitchell vs Jonathan Banks, two good contenders. The winner will put himself in line for some big fights in the next year and probably a title shot too.

Thompson vs Price II. Either Price gets his revenge and gets his career back on track, or Cunningham shows he is still a player in the division and will get some big offers.

There are other Heavyweight fights coming up but these are the main ones I wanted to mention.

It finally feels like we are starting to get somewhere in the division, with a lot of the top contenders fighting each other.

What are your thoughts
