    iv two contenders

    light middleweight - this division is a complete wasteland and completely useless

    look at the champions. liam smith won his title against some guy who im not even sure is in the top 50

    jermall charlo won his title against an old man who was never much good to begin with

    and now jermell charlo is fighting a guy andy almost murdered for a vacant title

    lara is the only decent champion but the best never fight the best in this division and he is rematching vanes. none of them ever move up to 160 which i think is another sign that the fighters aren't up to much

    and option number 2, lightweight

    the division is just a mess and no matter how much you like crolla he should be no where near a world title, the other 3 champions arent too bad to be fair but still pretty poor. at least this division has some prospects verdejo, easter and barroso look like they will improve it

    whats everyones opinion?
