    Bantam. Strictly by being around for a lot longer.

    Jr. Feather has done very well for itself, however.

    In the last 30 years, bantam gives us Chandler, Pintor, Orlando Canizales, Veeropol Sahaprom, Ayala-Tapia 1 and 2. Go back a little farther, and you get Taylor-Anaya, Zarate, Zamora, Olivares, Herrera, Castillo, Rose, Harada, and Jofre. Go back a little farther than that, and you get...

    You get the picture.

    junior bantam had a good era in the nineties with a number of nice fighters around, but overall this isn't even remotely close.

    Bantamweight clearly has the richer history.
