    Zoo, Crawford, Fundora, Madrimov and Mendoza.

    This division is on fire.

    Fundora rematch needs to happen. That's the smoke Tszyu should be going after.......redemption smoke. I'm curious how tje rematch would go. Both guys will have more than a few days to prepare for eachother. Still think it will be a tough fight.

    The amount of "titles" that are won by undeserving challengers for vacant belts has gotten totally out of control. The value of most of these titles is at an all time low. it is extremely rare that the best fight the best anymore and actually take a belt from the true champion.

    Baba yaga hasn't beaten anyone since he lost but miraculously became a mandatory again with another org. I guess kiwi casual won't see nothing wrong with this cos it's not the HW division.

    In case of 154 it´s kinda understandable because the undisputed slowly gave away his belts. So of course there are going to be lots of lower level title fights for vacant belts.

    Too bad PBC again wants to monopolize the division.

    Cheer up, Chuck. Timmy 2 Times is the light & the way @154.

    King Tim will clean house at PBC & then vanquish Team Turki's top guy.

    Whats more, Riyadh can host a playoff in 2025 w Crawford v Ortiz and Tszyu/Murtaz v Fundora in Spring and further unification in Fall, 2025.

    Two more fights for Bud...LFG!

    Hope Murtazaliev pound his head in. Why will he want to fight Lubin when Lubin doesn't have a belt and doesn't wanna fight.
