154lbs arguably has a better group of top young talent than Lightweight!

    Right now it's got good up-and-comers but I want to wait for them to prove themselves like the LWs have before giving it the cosign. LWs have started facing top opponents, or at least, not journeymen. These guys haven't got to that point yet.

    Its a lot easier to crack the top 10 in LW than 154 right now so it’s gonna take a lot longer for them to get an opportunity to prove themselves. I can see why OP came to his conclusion but those prospects at LW are looking to be something special.

    154 is a deep division.
