Best Division in boxing

**lb4lb** · 08-19-2006 07:20 AM

I have my favorates in many different divisions, but I had to go with 154 for Oscar. Cotto is a close second.

I voted 147, but 154 & 130 would be close behind. I would even venture to say 122 is gonna be explosive soon with R. Marqiez & Gonzalez joining the ranks with Vasquez, Sithchatchawal, Caballero, Cordoba, Medina, Vabuza, Molitor, & Ponce DeLeon all fighting there.

I am a bit surprised how 147 has almost all the votes but I guess you could say that it is the best.

Its just without Floyd, or besides Floyd, there's a lot of question marks. Really how good is Judah, is Margarito overhyped, is Baldomir as good as he's looked the last two times out or was that partially cause of Judah's inconsistency and Gatti being the definition of shopworn. And how good are the prospects? But there are questions about every division, like at 130 where you don't know how much Barrera and Morales have left.

If not the best then its certainly one of the most interesting of divisions, many questions and possible bouts to answer those questions...

yep, and if the article Wacko posted is right and Cotto is moving up to 147 for his next fight then that makes it the best division IMO.

Yeah,I thikn 147 is one of the best because of all the possibilites,with or without Floyd,all those questions you mentioned plus wildcards like Collazo,Williams,Quintana,Cintron,Clottey etc etc. Just want to see them fight each other and see how good they really are.

From 154 and up.

?? The talent pool stops at 160....Other than Hopkins at 175 Calzaghe at 168, Wright and Taylor at 160 the pickings are slim.....130-147 has divisions packed with talent or up and coming stars everything after 154 has a good fighter here a good fighter there but nothing consistant
