168 LBS most packed and exciting divison

ill stick to 130-147 for now...

maybe in 1 in 2 years when 168 is allegedly "supposed" to shape up ... ill start paying atteniton

 

Only way I'm gonna start looking at 168 is if Pav & AA move up. I'll pass on guys like Bute & Hausler.

 

Exactly - until Miranda proves otherwise, he was overrated. He struggled with a sickly Allan Green, and has been KO'd twice within a year's time. Granted his only losses have come to Abraham and Pavlik, but his wins aren't all that impressive. He's an exciting fighter though.

Marquez was old when Taylor beat him five years ago, and even older when AA beat him a few months back. Hardly a win to hang your hat on.

AA's style might give some fighters problems, but I've yet to see anything other than his power that tells me he could be a top fighter at 168. Sometimes though, power is enough... if it's combined with luck. *******'s tough as nails, too, as we saw in the first Miranda fight...

 

Seriously, stop mentioning Hausler. If it's a joke, it's not even close to funny. Not even Kessler wanted to waste his time fighting the guy, and ended up KO'ing him with a jab. Nobody considers him even top 20 at 168.

 

isn't bika fighting andrade....soon

 

Pavlik already beat JT twice, JT is the best if not the second best fighter at 168. So like I said, AA & Pav would probably dominate 168.

 

Andrade is supposed to fight Tsypko, IIRC, in an IBF eliminator.

 

What the hell is a Tsypko?

 

lmao... when the best start fighting the best and some belts are involved & some money ill start watching

 

All kinds of holes in that logic. Already went over them. Not going there anymore.

You're entitled to your opinion though.

 

Great fan you are. :good

 

Vitali. He fought Lacy twice. Almost beat him too. Decent at best. Not sure what he had going on now.

 

Not even then. I'm not gonna be paying money to see a bunch of C level fighters slug it out in a weak division. I'd rather pay for UFC 93

 

The guy Jeff Lacy beat in his comeback fight when he tore his rotator cuff.

Yes, the IBF is a joke.

 

I'm saying though.... think about it...

I have repect for all professional boxers and love watching boxing... but if no money or belts are involved.. or its not a MAJOR prospect..

i might as well be watching contender, friday night fights, or go up the street to seminole hard rock ( where mirdana knocked out banks)

because at the end of the day its just 2 guys fighting one another with nothing on the line
