Wladimir Klitschko regained the heavyweight title in a very easy seven round stoppage of Chris Byrd, in Germany on Saturday.
The Europeans (Russians) are currently dominating today's heavyweight division and deservedly so. Except for Hasim Rahman and James Toney, the heavyweight class in America has shown no signs of coming to life anytime soon.

Joe Mesi, won his comeback fight against a poor opponent, but you have to feel that the return to the ring speaks of a major accident waiting to happen, something neither Mesi nor boxing needs.

Three boxers from Santa Clara University (Cal.) were suspended for testing positive for anabolic steroids. Steroid use in all sports should be banned and those caught using must be severely punished. It's not anti Barry Bonds or Mark McGuire or anyone else, it's to keep our sport pure.
