I've always dug on 140lbs...but now that all the stars made the jump to 147lbs & Paul Williams has made a statement...it's time to be like George & Weezy & move on up with them.

That being said...from the start to the finish...160lbs is the division for me. Always has been...probably always will be. With fighters like Eastman, Hopkins (moved up), Pavlik, Wright, Sturm, Taylor, Abraham, Miranda, Duddy (even though I aint a fan), & Lorenzo at the forefront of the division...it's easy to see why.

147lbs is going to come alive in 2007 & give the bwoyz at 160lbs a run for their money.
If Hatton has some catch-weight fights after Castillo (should he win) then the div will be sunk.

I reckon he'll finish at 147 to be honest.
