    Stop being so magnanimous about being wrong. This is ESB or Boxing24 or whatever it's called now, you're meant to throw a hissy fit and call me an ******* who knows **** all about boxing, lol.

    It has been weak for years

    Back around 2003 - 2005/06 it was a strong division but not very well known. the Super 6 drew attention and casuals and fans who had not watched the division started to get taken in by hype.
    Really it has been a bit of a round robin since then. Faded past best Kessler beat Froch, Froch looked fortunate to some against Dirrell who Degale handled who had lost to Groves who lost to Froch etc. Ward struggled with a faded Froch etc

    Go back a few years before the S6 and I think many would have not been as recognised
