    I don't particularly follow the lower weights too much, though I'm interested in following them more closely because those divisions have some seriously skilled fighters.

    So as a point of reference, I wanted to ask ESB, who has the best resumes at 115, 118, 122, and 126, and what the key victories and losses were.

    118 and 126 are undeniably the best divisions in boxing right now, the deepest and with the best possible match-ups.

    I dont have the inclination to explain to you everything else you asked because it is simply to much effort that you should be putting in yourself and the divisions are too deep so would take a while.

    haha, gotcha. Well, I'll throw something out there. Since I have very little point of reference, what are some of Hasegawa's best wins?

    Veeraphol Sahaprom, twice, one war, one brutal KO. Maling TKO1, Valdez TKO2 and Maludrottu UD (who is a solid fighter).

    Do you think since Hozumi has apparently moved up to 126 that a showdown between some of the top fighters at 126 can be made or do you think location will be an issue?

    He fighting Burgos for the WBC title. Big fights after that most probably. Nishioka may move up after his defence v Munroe. Super fight in Japan and a very good fight. Nishioka is a brilliant fighter with huge underrated power.

    Maybe a John fight. I dont see Hasegawa getting it on with Gamboa, Juanma etc. But not through fault of his own, the demand just wont be enough for the fights, only by boxing fans, not casuals aswell.

    Unfortunately, I don't see any chance of a Gambo/Lopez- Hasegawa fight either. Which is too bad; Hozumi would give both quite a few problems I think (although I guess I should wait to see what he looks like at 126).
