    Nothing concrete atm, although it's been mentioned by Loeffler and Abel that GGG wants the belts then onto belt collection at 168

    middleweight is just a bit better than light middle at the moment but soon with the top prospects coming up it will possibly become one of the best divisions... Derevyanchenko, Quigley, Khytrov, Murata, etc

    ...Provided they actually fight one another. Last year, there were more matches that featured Top 10 LMWs against one another than Top 10 middleweights and that made the 154lb division more compelling, on the whole, than its 160lb counterpart. GGG-Jacobs is a very good match-up in the 160lb division, but it would be nice to see other contenders there fight one another this year.

    An ancient Sam Soliman and the ghost of Jermain Taylor were titlists at 160lbs, too, though.

    hard to get excited when none of the top fighters ever fight eachother. i think soro is a serious threat to them all.

    but 154 is the division for bulimic girls ,starving themselves so they don't have to fight at 160 imo
