    (who has admitted to having trouble draining to 147). We should be able to get some interesting matchups in this division in the near future.

    There are also some decent prospects at this weight from what I've read in other threads. You guys think this division could heat up? Or wil everyone stay fixated on Floyd-Pac and the tired-ass PED-testing debate?

    There's some good vibes there...but let's not forget when we were all excited about Martinez, Angulo and Kirkland taking over the division only for Angulo to lose against Cintron and Kirkland going to the booty house.

    Lara, Martirosyan, Peter Quillin, Angulo and Joe Green are a nice little young nucleus to go along with Margarito, Foreman, Dz, Williams and Sergio. Let's just hope the big fights get done.

    If those guys just started facing each other, one good fight after another, it would be massive

    After considerable thought, my guess is that everyone will stay fixated on Floyd-Pac and the tired-ass PED-testing debate.

    No , on that note your right big man !!!!!!

    I think Clottey is old news and would only wanna see him in there with the elite @154 , i.e. Williams or Martinez , you forgot Spinks who is very inactive for some reason the guy is a top fighter !!!!!!

    Cant wait to see what Marg brings to the table @154 to be honest !!!!!

    Arrested on gun charges. He's likely to be getting out shortly so there's hope he'll be able to fight in the fall.

    It does look like a great divison in the next year or so.

    I used to say Lara would be dominating that division in the future but after his last fight i saw he is very weak on the inside. He needs to tune that up before he rules that division or it wont happen.

    How about Angulo-Margarito???

    Dont tell me you guys wouldnt love that matchup??
