This Moment In Time

[Dia bando]

This moment in time, what is the best weight division, I myself would say Super bantam
why because great Champions and extremely good contenders to boot.!

[bradlee180]

How do you define "best weight division"? Do you mean regarding competition within that class OR by where the big-money fights featuring marketable famous fighters are?

[bzkfn]

Welter again.

Mayweather, Marquez, Pacquiao all reside there. Bradley, Alexander, Malignaggi, Guerrero, Berto, Maidana, Ortiz & Lopez are all up there. Factor in Keith Thurman and Adrien Broner and I'd say in terms of housing the best fighters in the world this is the weightclass.

Super-Bantam has already lost Mares, and if Donaire beats Rigondeux what is left? Promotional issues will stop the best fights from being made there.

It would have to be competition, I feel Super bantam is a very good division, Donaire top of the
pile with Quigg and Frampton in the mix.!

[Master]

Welterweight is the best division and has the biggest fighters p4p– Manny, Floyd, JMM.

[Dia bando]

Welter seems to be a popular division, yes excellent fighters but I was thinking
the smaller weight division deserves a mention.!

[Galaxy]

Welter

154 ain't bad Alvarez, Trout, Molina, Lara, Martirosyan, Cotto, Smith, add in Rosado, Kirkland, Angulo, Andrade

Jr Fly and Fly are stacked. They just don't get the exposure.

108 come on, maybe 5 to 6 top guys, but hard pressed after that

A little deeper at 112 but hard to fill out the top 10

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of these divisions but the talent isn't so deep imo

Much of that has to do with exposure. Talent is most definitely there.

Lets see:

112 - Igarashi, Viloria, Sosa, Reveco, Marquez, Melindo, maybe Segura, Concepcion, that's 8 then it gets pretty thin

108 - Gonzalez, Hernandez, Ioka, Nietes, Fuentes, Paipharob & I'll throw in Rossel, Palacios & maybe Rios, that's 9 at a push

Lol whats the point? That is more competitive then today's welter division. Only difference that many of those names and the rest toiling in the top 14 are not known. They are not known because they get little coverage. The west for the most part or generally follows 126 north.

I disagree, I feel those divisions are very weak outside of those named

147 however you have Floyd, Guerrero, Bradley, Pac, Broner, Alexander, Brook, Thurman, Maidana, Malignaggi, then throw in the likes of Berto, Lopez, Abregu, Vargas, Ortiz. Cano, Karass, Aydin, Zaveck, Mike Jones, Senchenko are all solid, just seems there's more depth there at the moment

[Spicoli]

With the wink and nod attitude with divisions and 'contracted weights vs actual weight' I'm not sure there is an accurate gauge these days. But 154 is a major transition point and seems to really be a hot spot on interest.

[Vendettos]

Middle! Froch, Kessler, Ward etc.

Welter and Bantam close behind.
