    So we have really hot coming through, Timothy Bradley, Marco Maidana, Devon Alexander, Lamont Peterson, Victor Ortiz. With Amir Khan and Juan Diaz to step up eventually.

    Bradley proved tonight that he was capable of stepping up and I would say the fighters in the list there are some that I would rate over Bradley, they will now all be looking to step up and want a piece of what Bradley got tonight.

    Ricky is now in the Kostya Tszyu position with all them hungry to be the man at the division while Hatton will wantg the big fights and will eventually have to fight one eventually, I think the new crop will be unbelievably good in the near future to a point in a few years will be way more highly skilled to the best we have at 140 at the mo. (to be honest I can see Hatton being beat by one of them)

    Surely LWW and WW in the future is in really brilliant shape.

    The Jr. WW division does look more exciting heading towards the future.. All it really is right now is Ricky Hatton.. Many people thinking Witter was also on the top as people kept accusing Hatton of ducking Witter.. Hatton may have avoided Witter, whether he just didn't want to fight him or he wants bigger paydays.. Bradley proved tonight with his win over Witter that he's gonna' be a top contender.. I now see Witter falling from here as he'll probably either ask for a rematch against Bradley or he'll start taking easy fights.. Anyways, here are the fighters I see carrying the Jr. WW division in the next couple of years aside from Hatton..

    -Timothy Bradley
    -Paulie Malignaggi
    -Victor Ortiz
    -Andreas Kotelnik
    -Amir Kahn

    Maidana will surely be a force, still green but **** can he bang, and hard, I think he could blow most out the water.

    22 fights with 21 KO's or something, and sparked Morua out in 1.

    And you have Alexander as well who I think will be the best out of the lot.

    Wondered why Hatton was so gutted about Diaz losing to Campbell.

    The Junior Welterweight division looks good for the future. Hatton is the oldest champion at his early 30's. Paulie and Torres are both 27 and Bradley is 24 and all the other prospects are pretty young. I think the Junior Welterweight division can look like the welterweight division in 2 to 3 years.

    I think there's going to be a massive cyborg insurrection sometime around 2026.

    Is that the dude who sounded like Serena Williams against Chop Chop on the RJJ-Tito undercard?

    He was pretty impressive.

    Same guy. He's been very impressive as far as I've seen. I expect he's got a few more wins in front of him.
