    Matthysse beat both Judah & Alexander, he just got dicked on the cards! Floyd is undefeated!

    If Floyd got robbed most people would call his fans bitter if they said he is still unbeaten, I wish people could admit those fights were close

    Well, can't really say a single person on top.... this has suddenly turned into the toughest division in the past couple years...

    My picks of the division in no particular order -

    proven A calibers ~
    Brandon Rios, Lamont Peterson, Lucas Matthysse

    A-/B+ ~
    Amir Khan, Zab Judah, Mike Alvarado, Henry Lundy, Ajose Olusegan, Selcuk Aydin

    Past Prime fringe contenders ~
    Humberto Soto, Nate Campbell, Chop Chop Corley, Joan Guzman

    Prospect phenoms to seriously watch out for ~
    Dierry Jean
    Pierre Olivier Cote

    I like Matthysse the most, but I think Garcia is the best for now.
    Heck, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see Peterson outpoint Matthysse, but I'd love to be wrong.

    If you win a fight on my card by 1 point (Alexander) and lose a fight by 1 point (Judah), you will not get any sympathy from me whining about it if you OFFICIALLY lose both of them.

    I think the rounds in the Alexander fight were clear and could not be scored to Alexander without using a bit of imagination. However, I had it 5-5 in rounds with the KD being the difference. That's a close fight. No robbery.

    I'm challenging all 39 people who picked Matthysse to a aviator bet when Peterson fights Matthysse and if Khan fights him, your avi will say you don't know **** about boxing or I'm a bandwagon jumper not sure yet
