    I added them.

    Its amazing how deep the division is. To have that many solid fighters. You could take any two of those guys and you would have a good fight.

    Any of the beltholders could fight any fighter listed and it would be a reputable defense. What a division!

    I couldn't agree with you more, man. Whoever establishes themselves as the top dog in the next 2-3 years deserves whatever recognition they'll get and will have unquestionably earned the title of being a great fighter.

    Let's just keep our fingers crossed and hope the promoters don't screw it up so we get to see the best fights happen.:good

    Paul Williams also might be tempted to test the 168 pounders.

    He's brave but that would probably be a bad move.

    Yeah i think he would be biting off more than he can chew but it would add some extra spice to the division.

    Lets not forget Danny Jacobs and Matvey Korobov, two MWs who will see tons of work at 168 when the day is through.

    Mundine would be worth of noting if he didn't drop back down to middleweight.. and if he grew some balls to put his talent to the test.

    supper middle weight is my favorite division in boxing right now! Dawson is already done at 175, and he can come down. Man this division is the best, can you people imagine dawson vs. taylor or dawson vs. kessler. So many match ups, and I wish kessler would get rid of that promoter and be active again. What more if guys like pavlik, and abraham would go up too. Damn that division is the best.
