What's your favourite division?
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.

1st HW (obvious), 2nd CW (the most competitive right now), 3rd LHW
Re: What's your favourite division?
light heavyweight division is the best.
toughest boxers, lots of new top talents, overall highest quality.

Re: What's your favourite division?
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!

Re: What's your favourite division?
Middleweights my default favourite and is my favourite right now.
Re: What's your favourite division?
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.darkstar81 wrote:Probably been asked many times on this forum but..

175 and 160
Re: What's your favourite division?
Heavy and welter have the potential to be the best but feather, LHW, and cruiser are the most fun at the moment.

Re: What's your favourite division?
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.

Re: What's your favourite division?
The heavyweight division has always been my favourite.
Re: What's your favourite division?
Straw weight.
Re: What's your favourite division?
all weights from 122 lbs are interesting. My favorites are 154, 160,168 and 175. In amateurs, 75 kg and 81 kg.

Re: What's your favourite division?
More heavy more interesting so 1. HW, 2. cruiser, 3. light HW.

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