    Jr welterweight, and middleweight are worse.

    Not even close. Strawweight is by far the worst right now. Of the weightclasses above lightweight, light middle is probably the weakest, although light welter is also pretty weak. I'd probably have light heavy as one of my top 5 strongest divisions. Sure, the guys are old, but they're also still very good, and heavier fighters peak much later than smaller fighters.

    Not my words (Kellerman for one has said this) but I don't think much of him-wins on sheer youth sometimes in this Senior Citizen Division.

    Max Kellerman called Chad Dawson a "club fighter?" I didn't hear him say that, and I find it hard to believe he would say something so stupid. If indeed he did say it, he should be taken out and flogged in the public square! :blood

    Weak division. But it has some names that make it very interesting.
