    Well, what can we say, he prefers guys above jr. welters.


    Let's just say that guys at lower weight class are an acquired taste much like wine.

    Some of the lower weight classes has very limited talent pools seeing as so few people are that size.

    It makes sense they are the least followed weight classes.

    When a Lopez comes along he still deserves some credit though.

    I actualy hate Heavyweight division more than anything right now.
    Flyweight - Super middle weight is most interesting for me since you can see guys wich have stamina/power/speed. I fell a sleep last time I saw a Heavyweight fight....

    The US and the UK don't have a lot of guys that size, but other countries do, I argue quite a few of the sub 140 weight classes are as deep or deeper than many of the above 140 classes.

    Honestly what happens in the UK and the US is the superior athletes who would be excellent boxers in the 160+ weight classes tend to get into more lucrative sports that don't involve getting punched in the head.

    I agree entirely, that all fits into my theory of why Willie Pep was nothing compared to recent elite fighters at that weight.

    Below 122 it is definitely getting thinner though, especially when so many of the fighters move up in weight.

    So what if the lttle guys can fight. Using that logic why not have a weight class and a champion at every pound down to 98 lbs. Why not make 20 more divisions under 140 lbs?

    There should be about 5 weight classes. welterweight , middleweight, lightheavyweight, cruiserweight and heavyweight.

    Why get so emotional? Can't express yourself any other way? No wonder your wife left you. She's not as good as I originally thought she'd be either.
