Why does the lighter divisions never get any credit

[Deanrw]

There's a lot of idiots out there. I find it funny when people claim to be boxing fans but don't follow certain division (the small ones paticular). How the fukk you going to claim to be a boxing fan and not know who the fukk Yutata Niida and Donnie Nietes are?

I'll be honest with you. I never even heard of Nietes before and never seen either of them fight.

Niida is the best Strawweight out there. As well as the WBA champion. He's top 3 in the list of the best Strawweight's ever. Nietes is the WBO Strawweight title holder. Decent fighter. Niida I really like.

It is just really hard to get exposed to the really small guys over here. No networks carry them. I have heard about Niida before though.
