The ones in bold are divisions where one person has multiple titles, in my opinion these are the guys that sould be fighting each other, while I don't put much stock in the alphabet titles individually, when combined I think they are like Voltron.

Thanks, now I can see how messed up boxing really is when some true champions aren't even listed i.e. Bernard Hopkins who still is the true LH champion since he hasn't given his final word on retirement since he is entertaining offers to fight Calzaghe.

He did retire... why else would he not have the title or have been stripped by it?

He even said before the fight that he wouldn't keep the belt or stick around at LH.

funny how the top two p4p winky and pac doesn't have a title...

my oppinion on some division:

at the heavies...

WBA - Nicolay Valuev
WBO - Shannon Briggs
WBC - Oleg Maskaev
IBF - Wladimir Klitschk

wlady should k.o briggs, valuev should whoop oleg, then wlady and valuev.

Cruiserweight

WBA - O'neil Bell
WBO - Enzo Maccarinelli
WBC - O'Neil Bell
IBF - Krzysztof Wlodarczyk

uhh...who cares.

Light Heavyweight

WBA - Sylvio Branco
WBO - Zsolt Erdei
WBC - Tomasz Adamek
IBF - Clinton Woods

I like adamek but I dnt care much for this division too.

Super Middleweight

WBA - Mikkel Kessler
WBO - Joe Calzaghe
WBC - Mikkel Kessler
IBF - Vacant

joe needs to fight kessler, he wants to prove his so good make sure his the best outside the u.s first and beat kessler and take his titles...I dnt get why all these years he never fought in the states but now a guy like kessler comes around. his leaving to get fights in the u.s..kessler is the right fight for now anything other then that proves nothing.

Middleweight

WBA - Mariano Carrera
WBO - Jermain Taylor
WBC - Jermain Taylor
IBF - Arthur Abraham

one of my favorite division now...panthera miranda wants to fight abraham, I'd like him to take carreras titles first then takes abrahams, then a big fight with j.t all or nothing...but what about winky? by that time winky has lost to improved j.t...winky moves down to take floyd on but...floyd retires

Super Welterweight

WBA - Jose Rivera - Travis Simms
WBO - Sergeii Dzinziruk
WBC - Oscar De La Hoya
IBF - Cory Spinks

floyd prolly will win oscars wbc, if he doesn't retires he`ll take corys and the rest if no other gets in the way...if he does retire its because winky has moved down and then this division will be winkys

Welterweight

WBA - Miguel Cotto
WBO - Antonio Margarito
WBC - Floyd Mayweather
IBF - Kermit Cintron

floyd prolly stay up in super welter if he beats oscar...cotto will own this deep division that floyd avoids...william may make some noise tony may silent him til cotto owns this division.but mosley can be a punishing challenge.

Super Lightweight

WBA - Souleymane M’baye
WBO - Ricardo Torres
WBC - Junior Witter
IBF - Juan Urango

urango prolly be the only one to stay champ for long.

Lightweight

WBA - Juan Diaz
WBO - Acelino Freitas
WBC - Joel Casamayor - David Diaz
IBF - Jesus Chavez - Julio Diaz

didn't freitas retire? I like juan diaz here...if em gets casamayor em has a legit shot at winning...surprise supries em can make a comeback in this division.

Super Featherweight

WBA - Edwin Valero
WBO - Joan Guzman
WBC - Marco Antonio Barrera
IBF - Malcolm Klaassen

besides mab, all of these guys won the title against who? lower level fighters that's who...the title give them some hype...but pac will eventually shut them all out including mab and pac will own this division until he feels like it actuall he already does owns this even without a title. mab is outcast...move up face em again or move down to face jmm staying here is suicide the pacman owns this.

Featherweight

WBA - Chris John
WBO - Juan Manuel Marquez
WBC - Rudy Lopez
IBF - Vacant

jmm may move up to challenge pac...but he will lose, this division is his to comeback to jst like em, em can make a comeback at lightweight...but stay away from pacs division.

Super Bantamweight

WBA - Celestino Caballero
WBO - Daniel Ponce De Leon
WBC - Israel Vazquez
IBF - Steve Molitor
