What's your favourite division?

Post by darkstar81 »

Probably been asked many times on this forum but..

For me it's Super Middle - as a Brit there's been lots of great fights in last 25 years involving the Brits at 168. It's probably the heaviest division where speed is prevalent, add in the power and it makes for exciting fights. I expect 2017 and 2018 to be fantastic at Super Middle.

Also Welterweight as historically so many great fighters and fights.

Don't really have a preference but growing up I was a big Naz fan then Scott Harrison and now my favourite fighter is Frampton so I've always been attracted to the lower weight classes. I also grew up a big fan of Barrera.

Rich and poor, then maybe the disparity of the sexes. I'm all about the classics.

At the moment 115, 130 and Cruiserweight.

The talent at 115 (Gonzalez, Inoue, Ancajas, Yafai, Caudras, Srisaket, Estrada) and the exciting but limited guys (Conlan, Tso, Kono, Concepcion) just incredible.

At 130 we seem to be constantly getting great fights featuring guys like Miura, Vargas, Salido, Martinez, Kaneko, we have a new age of fighters there (Lomachenko, Berchelt, Corrales, Davis) and some interesting prospects (Ito, Walsh, Farmer)

Cruisers have been consistently on fire in recent years! They are what the Heavyweights used to be!

It's Heavyweights... Joshua-Klitschko is going to break all records in Europe.. Imagine if Ortiz, Joshua, Wilder, Povetkin, Haye, Fury, Wallin, Rivas, Miller, and Parker actually start fighting each other. Big Heavyweight fights gotta start happening this year.

Heavy and welter have the potential to be the best but feather, LHW, and cruiser are the most fun at the moment.

Right now it has to be 126 or 130. There is a real depth of talent there that doesn't seem to exist anywhere else:

126: Santa Cruz, Frampton, Quigg, Mares, Russell, Selby, Cuellar, Valdez, Diaz, Escandon, Warrington, Vetyeka

130: Lomachenko, Berchelt, Vargas, Miura, Walters, Sosa, Salido, Corrales, Davis, Martinez, Uchiyama, Gonzalez

The HW division is absolutely dire right now. I'm not sure there are more than 5 or 6 decent fighters in the whole division.

Heavyweight, I never understood how someone could be interested in two dwarfs fighting each other.
