    Two of the hottest divisions right now. Which one is more loaded with good fights, 140 or 168?(Quality not quantity)

    140: Hatton 45-2, Marquez 50-5(I doubt he's going back to 135), Bradley 25-0, Khan 22-1, Alexander 19-0, Peterson 27-1, Ortiz 25-2, Malignaggi 27-3, Maidana 27-1, Campbell 33-5, Holt 25-3(What's up with Holt?), Urango 22-2, Kotelnik 31-3, Witter 37-3, Alvarado 28-0(can he fight someone already?)


    168: Abraham 31-0, Ward 21-0, Bute 25-0, Froch 26-0, Dirrell 18-1, Kessler 42-2, Miranda 33-4, Green 29-1, Andrade 28-3, Stieglitz 36-2, Bika 28-3, Inkin 34-1, Manfredo Jr 33-6, Oganov 30-2

    So which has the better match ups in your opinion?

    They're both hot imo but i'll have to lean towards 140.

    Quality not quantity? If you're talking quality not quantity, 147 still rules the roost. In terms of quantity though, 168, 126 and 140 are better, in that order.

    147 is a hot division but I asked between 140 and 168 not which one is the hottest division in general.

    Anyways here's the top names at WW

    Mayweather
    Pacquiao
    Mosley
    Berto
    Margarito
    Cotto
    Clottey
    Judah

    Not too bad but if you really look in to it, Judah is no longer the same, Cotto is no longer the same, Mosley can show up old at any given fight, Margarito needs a comeback real bad. 140 division is full of young fighters and good evenly matched fights while WW doesn't have that many evenly matched fights left, just big money fights.

    If a tournament could be done for 140 and one for 147 that would really give a boost to boxing.

    Pac is the top fighter at Welter. Void is void.

    168 by far.

    140 is amazingly overrated. Bradley is the only one who has proved he is the real deal.

    I think 118, 126, 147 and 168 are the best divisions.

    I go for the 168 division. By some way! And at 168 we are assured of some great fights in 2010.
