    Was Historically Explosive, and he isnt wrong, its almost the perfect blend of power, speed, skills, balance and stamina. Double down on that power!!!! its a very brutal division and Two massive hitters will face each other this saturday.

    Beterbiev looks evil. I think hes against taking a massive shot from Smith Jr, I hope Joe has mutiple plans. Smith needs to be unbelievable explosive from the guard, it could be a crazy upset.

    In recent years it's been packed with talent but for one reason or another it's taken longer than it should have to make the big fights or they just flat out didn't happen.. we cudda seen Kovalev v Beterviev, Stevenson etc but unfortunately neither will happen now… brilliant division overall though packed with a multitude of talent and varying styles.. Bivol, Beterviev, Smith, Canelo, Kovalev, Gvozdyk, Dawson, Bhop, Pascal, Calzaghe, RJJ, DM, Tarver, Johnson, Adamek, Hill, Ward, Alvarez, Moorer, Toney, Maske, Rochigiani, Bute, Griffin.. Just some of the talent that has fought their over recent years… So many great fights got away too:

    RJJ v DM
    Kovalev v Stevenson
    Hill v Moorer

    The perfect blend is 147, but lhw Is the best division for big men to retain a lot of speed and skill. Should be a lot more exciting than it is right now though

    The Middleweight division is the Ultimate if we are being picky but, welterweight skillwise, Light heavy power.
    and everyrtinh in between.
