Best division

Post by kwesterman »

What is the best division currently both domestically and worldwide? Domestically I would probably say Super Lightweight and worldwide either featherweight or Light middleweight

Hard to disagree there. 140 domestically and 126 internationally.

What is so good about the domestic 140 lbs division?

It's pretty weak really.

I'd still say Welterweight on world basis, to still a very deep division. Don't see the attraction of 140 domestically - I'd go for heavyweight as we have 3 genuine top 10 fighters who would all make for big fights if they match up with each other plus some decent fights to be made below them from Chisora, Price and Whyte

Domestically I'd say 147 and I'd say cruiserweight worldwide as it's a really deep division with a lot of good potential matchup. 154 is a good shout aswell though.

There is some great fights to be made but a lot of them are with different promoters so will be hard to make. There is Josh Taylor, O'Hara Davies, Catterall, Nurse, Burns, Hibbert, Coyle and Theopane there is even Frankie Gavin to add into the mix if he can make 140

Super middleweight has James DeGale, George Groves, Callum Smith, Martin Murray, Rocky Fielding, Paul Smith etc. It's a league above quality-wise.

Light heavyweight is good at world level

Lightweight is very strong domestically

Super Flyweight, Super Featherweight and Cruiserweight are the best 3 internationally imo,
