Boxing Needs A Super Heavyweight Division!

 Klitschko brothers

The heavyweight division was once a legenday division with the likes of Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, and George Foreman in the heavyweight's "Golden Era" to even Larry Holmes, Evander Holyfield, and  Mike Tyson in the 80's and 90's. What do all these heavyweights have in common? They were all under 225 lbs. in their prime. Since Lennox Lewis beat Holyfield in '99, there hasn't been a real legit heavyweight champ under  225 pounds. Since Lewis retired after his win over Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko have dominated the heavyweight division under the coaching of the late great Manny Steward.
