    Heavyweight division.... gatta show respect for the big boys.

    Then, in this order:
    Welterweights (catch-weights between 140 and 150)
    Super-Middleweights
    Middleweight
    Lightweights

    Most hated divisions:
    Light Heavyweight (if it wasn't for Chad Dawson, I wouldn't watch a damn LH fight, EVER! The last exciting LH they had was Michael Moorer. Even RJJ at LH was boring!)
    Cruiser-weight
    Flyweight

    (Donaire made me a fan of Bantam and Super-Bantams!)

    But, I have to admit, my list after super middleweight can become interchangeable!

    In terms of "all time", I'd have to say...

    1) Heavyweight
    2) Welterweight
    3) Middleweight

    I know that the guys in lower divisions are much more skilled than the bulky HWs, but to me the biggest attraction is always the HW division, because (at least on paper) the #1 HW is the guy who can whip ANY MAN in the ring. The HW champ SHOULD be the baddest man on the planet.

    Right now, my favorite is the Welterweight to Light middleweight area. Just so much talent and such a diverse talent pool. You have established living legends like Pacquaio and Mayweather, you have budding stars like Canelo, solid wild card guys like Berto, Guerrero, ect, and exciting prospects like Keith Thurman. I really enjoy that range of weight right now.

    South of light heavies there is a need for skill and that is entertaining. Unfortunately some of the best have been cheated by inept judges. Mayweather, Alvarez, Martinez and quite a few others overshadow the heavier divisions with skill and a large well full of challengers. My favorites however is whoever comes in shape ready to fight and ducking no one and that is south of light heavyweight.
