    If you could be a good boxer, puncher in any division and had the opportunity to challenge for the world title, which division would you not pick because the reigning champions looked very hard to beat?

    And which division or fighter would you challenge because you think they would be easy to beat?

    For example,

    I would avoid:-

    Middleweight (Pavlik and Abraham)
    Welterweight (Margarito)
    Lightweight (Manny P, Campbell, Casamayor)

    :huh

    I duck no-one. Nobody will be spared of my wrath.

    I wouldn't duck anybody but reigning at cruiserweight would be a good start.

    I wouldn't pick the low weight classes because they're so underpaid.

    In all seriousness, I wouldn't like to fight any of the champions at welterweight or super bantamweight. I would say lightweight but Kobori holds a form of the WBA belt and he's beatable. I don't know much about the divisions south of super fly so I'm not sure about the strength of the champions (bar Ulises Solis, Ivan Calderon and Nonito Donaire). I think of terms of the champions bantamweight and light-middle aren't especially strong.
