    Adrian Diaconu is pretty exciting and could really get the division going. Glen Johnson showed he has some years left IMO. Juergen Braehmer has some heart and real power. Pavlik could easily move up. Froch while not a world beater IMO has enough power to give him a punchers chance in every fight. Woods, even though he was schooled by Jones and lost 3 times to Johnson is a great gatekeeper.

    All in all this should be the first division to form a senior league, 40+

    He looks ill and will be trying to fight Light Heavyweights at Heavyweight pace, I will be surprised if he beats Shaun George never mind making an impact on the division

    All things considered I place this division at #2 for least talent behind the boys of 154.

    40+ League I like it lol, Diaconu didn't look too impressive over Chris Henry recently, but is undefeated and will be a threat, Chad Dawson is still a decent prospect but he is too easily drawn into a fight and although his conditioning have got him through a few scares his chin will let him down. Pavlik, it's a big jump from middleweight, not sure there is much in it for him taken that step, he makes the middleweight limit far easier than most, Braehmer is a decent domestic and Euro fighter but may get a shock on the world class scene. From sources I here Woods is looking to call it a day
