    Both Welterweight and Lightweight are stacked. I can't choose. Is there another division who can compete with thoses two?

    Lightweight by far, PBF should come back and clean out the division as he has said before he can get back down all the way to super featherweight

    The strongest division is and and always will be the Heavyweights. It's why they seperate Heavyweights from the smaller weights so no lighter weight boxer gets killed.
    As far as which division is the most "competitive" read above posts.

    Check out lightmiddleweight on Boxrec The top 18 or so are all competitive, and lightheavy, even if you throw out Johnson, Tarver, Jones Jr. and Hopkins it still is a deep division

    Welterweight division is flooded with talented guys but they aren't nearly the caliber of fighters as the lightweights have. I have begun to realize that the WW division became very overrated due to a large amount of "good" fighters, but no "great" fighters. Delahoya, Tito and Mosley were "great" welterweights, and any one of them in their prime would clean todays division out.
