I can see Peterson beating Garcia, Garcia beating Khan, Khan beating Peterson. Good old boxing

Still Blazin

No one. The division is wide open. The last king of 140 was Bradley.

Garcia is #1 in the division because he's the most decorated but I believe Matthysse is the best JWW in terms of fighting skills and track record.

I still consider Bradley a 140lber, and I think he can beat anyone in the division still.

Bushbaby

IMO the 2 choices are either Garcia, or Mattysse.

MJ223

Still open for debate

This. Bradley's wasting his time right now, IMO. Not like he could get many of those fights at 140 anyways.

It's too bad because I think he has the opportunity to stand head and shoulders above everyone in that division. Who would have ever thought that the decision to sign with TR and get a decision over Pac would lead his career to this kind of a standstill.

Tough question as its a deep division. I think Mathysse would be my pick, I dont know enough about Khabib or Postol to really make a definite call. Also, maybe you have to consider Broner in the mix even though he is fighting Paulie for his ww belt.
