    I was just wondering what everyone throught was the greatest division of all time? It seems that we are forever discussing who or what makes a ATG, but we do not look at the divisions. Either way I am going to plump for Middleweight, as I don't think there has been a division with as many great champions, while (when there are decent boxers in its class of course) it contains the right amount of speed and power.

    Welterweight. The division has it all. Great boxers, sluggers, defensive fighters, speed, power, ferocity. When I think boxing, I think welterweight.

    Welterweight...closely followed by Heavyweight.

    Boxing possibly wouldn't be as big as it is today if these divisions hadn't been packed with such talent, and massive ego's.

    Welterweight easily. Every Type of fighter there is can be found in that division.
