    the welterweight division will heat up quickly after the Cotto vs Gomez, Cintron vs Margarito II, and Mosley vs Judah fights and we'll see the true elites of the division take each other on and hopefully get some unification action going on in a division which is waiting to explode.

    why is lightweight division the best to some of you? It got old fighters in the top(casa and campbell) who i think are in the verge of retirement looking for 1 big payday.. Others are juan diaz, peterson, khan, raheem(although boring) and then pac who is just moving up.

    I think the lightweight division is better before with prime fighters like castillo, corrales, casa, freitas, campbell etc.

    LW
    Pac and jmm coming up and maybe guz too.
    david diaz,juan,casa,campbell,katsidis,khan..
    But alas jmm only wants pac at lw. Why don't he pick up a b-class fighter at lw or someone who had a name that he can school with? He must come out with a win so when he rematches with pac,jmm huggers won't have the same excuse that jmm "was coming from a loss". I don't want him to face pac right away as "he came off from a loss" with the sd decision of pac. Btw,JMM vs casa would be good. It's a match of the oldies.:D

    Don't underestimate oldies look what they just have achieved lately:
    Penalosa tko's vorapin
    Casamayor tko's katsidis
    And ,though i can't agree but to some jmm fans: jmm ud pac(???)
    In the future hopkins wins over calzaghe..:lol:
    And you mentioned freitas, iwant pac to face him and casa too, so pac would have the monicker:"the legend killer"!!

    I think Welter has the most talent and exciting fighters in it, by far. LW is great too. If you combine Middle + SMW , its pretty promising as well.

    well i'm not underestimating them, its just that they're near retirement and if a fighter beats them. The general excuse would be that he's old and should have hang his gloves. My basis for the best division is prime fighters with lot of talent and skill. Thats why i picked superflyweight:yep

    Wow! I can't believe how many people love the Lightweight division.
    It's a good division but #1 is a stretch of course not even in top five...well that's just a bad joke!
