Why don't they make boxing class based on height only? instead of body weight
That way all the fighters will be beefed up. More interesting to watch that way...?

That would make Tommy Hearns a heavyweight and Mike Tyson a middleweight and there is no way the fights would have been competitive.

First off, there's already a division for "beefed up" fighters. It's called the Heavyweight division.

Actually the smaller guys can be more fun to watch as they actually move around. Of course boxing is dead and will remain so thus it does not matter much.
