Ya know whats happening with the Heavyweight division. My theory is the Lennox Lewis curse. What is that per say? Well, check it out. When Lennox ruled the yard, most critics said the same things as they do with Wladimir Klitschko: fights safe, boring, not American, unfair advantages, too skilled, too big, & my favorite their losses by KO. Now what I mention above is the first part of curse. Second part is when after there retired. Lennox is just now getting the credit he deserves why cause folk are re watching his s**t & understand now how great he was, but when he was active, he was s**t as some would say. Guess what, ur doing it to the Klitschkos as well( more so Wladmir than Vitali). You know what that means right. In maybe 2 years after Wladimir hangs it up, folk will be doing the same, (especially if he can do what is possibly break Joe Louis hallowed record) ull then have no choice but to reconize him (as u had to with Lennox). Final part is the decline... When Lennox retired in 2003. Vitali Klitschko the man who was ahead on points against Lewis before that cut stopped the fight, was the so called heir to the throne. Had a great start, but got injured & retire (tho he came back). What happened next was the worst year/ 2 year period by far in the heavyweight division (until Wlad emerged in 2006). U can mark my words, Wilder (or any other top contender) that lays claim to the title or can unify any of the other titles, something will happen, that will send that division into that lull again. Then much like in 05 when folk really started missing Lennox, Fans will miss both the Klitschkos again.... Hope I didnt sound insane. Plzz read before u talk (thats for those casual fans)
