    Welterweight is the best division right now. About 10 years ago it was the best division and then those same guys made junior middleweight the most exciting division. That may happen again very soon.

    Before lightweight, I think the next best division is junior featherweight.

    The lightweight division is set to explode with superfights but right now welter is the best crop of big names

    Cotto comes out on top for me

    Best lightweight ? Probably Casa

    A lot of those guys at 135 are either blown up featherweights or guys who will eventually move up into 140-147.

    Lightweight division has too many ifs and buts about it however talented it currently is.

    I can honestly name at least 10 big fights at 147 that could and probably will happen over the next 2-3 years floyd or no floyd!!

    I want to lean over to the Lightweight division now. Cotto vs Margarito is huge but that's all that's going on right now. Lightweight is already up and started and looks like it's going to get more active. Maybe Guzman and Marquez aren't proven 135 fighters yet, but they sure are dangerous nonetheless.

    We've already seen Campbell's upset over J. Diaz, Casamayor's thriller over Katsidis, and Pacquiao's clinic over D. Diaz. Coming up and already signed are Casamayor vs Marquez, Campbell vs Guzman, and Katsidis vs J. Diaz. AND possibly, Pacquiao vs Valero also in the same weight. That division is easily the most active and mouth-watering at the moment to date for me. There's barely any ducking going on in the division, everyone is looking forward to win their matches so they could already start training to fight another match-up's winner. Plus Campbell, Casa, JMM, and Guzman aint getting any younger so they would want fights to happen as quickly as possible before the clock cathes up with them.

    ...Not to mention, Amir Khan could be thrown into the mix at some point..
