    Yes. For me entertainment is as important as quality in Boxing and while this division is currently shallow in talent it is very deep in entertainment.

    I think the talent is there. They just need a little more experience and to weed each other out by elimination. Let the cream rise to the top, but to do that, they have to go old school where the top contenders actually face one another.

    Hopefully, that will start this year and by next year we'll know what's what. :good

    OP is right, Martin v Wilder will be competitive. It's a bum off.

    having very beatable beltholders helps for the excitement level, if they actually fight eachother.

    up 'till now we just see them against soft touches and not even looking all that convincing against them. let's see what happens next.

    I like the division with the reinvented roofed up haye (had to say it, but don't believe) with DW and especially the king of all AJ.

    Then we have ortiz, if fury sticks around, I'm loving the beatings he takes from AJ and DW, possibly even ortiz if fury last another 5 years.

    Ortiz has to get to fury quicker rather than later. Only problem, I see fury doing his usual pansy antics and fear ortiz lays him out right them and there first press conference.

    I'm not very confident fury comes back after the shot/gunshy wlad khtfo later in the year

    Wlad should retire, he can't beat Fury and he's just stalling the progress of the fighters today with his style.

    -IFC champ Martin is calling out top contender Joshua.
    -Top contender Parker is calling out top contender Joshua.
    -Wilder Vs Povetkin in negotiations and both state they want the fight ASAP
    -Fury Vs Klitscho ll is on the front burner
    -Ortiz Vs TBD is right around the corner
    -Fury is anxious and saying he wants to face Wilder

    Hey, we haven't seen this type of activity in a while. What's there not to like about champions facing top contenders and top contenders facing off one another.
    Great prospective matches in 2016. :yep

    I think Vlad is currently undergoing KGB psycho-therapy, hypnosis and electro-shock therapy for dealing with his extreme fear of a 7' gypsy.

    That hypnosis is great and Vlad may not be shaking in his boots the next time they meet.

    Ortiz better be quick incase the drug tests catch him (again)

    as for fury-wlad, wlad is going to get humiliated even more so next time (if that's possible)

    Many exciting talents. But talent doesn't necessarily equal being a good champ.

    Either it will become super exciting with new champs challenging each other all the time. But it could also end up a mess with a bunch of weak champs.

    And I am not sure we have heard the last from Wlad. Lets see...

    Ortiz will likely be facing a German or Russian, so drug testing won't be an issue.

    The odds of Fury self imploding before the rematch are very good. I think it's 70/30 odds that Vlad regains the titles. :yep
