higher weight classes vs. lower weight classes

the real action is at a John Ruiz fight..

what division stands out is the welterweight you have: cotto,mayweather,margarito,judah,gatti in and around that weight mmm i definately agree with you on that.

the action is actually from the middleweights down to minimumweights what division stands out is the welterweight you have: cotto,mayweather,margarito,judah,gatti in and around that weight

Well by your classification you are bound to see more interesting fights at the 'Lower weights' as from Lt. Middle downwards there are 12 weights and above it are only 5 weights so there are more fights hence more interesting fights. Also I think at the moment the heavier divisions have been dier as of late. The Heavyweight scene is an embarrassment, for too long RJJ and Hop dominated their divisions and for too long Ottke, Beyer and co avoided Calzaghe. With this distinct lack of competition these divisions have been deadbeat. Whereas at Featherweight you have/had JMM, Pac, Morales, MAB and going further back, Tapia and Ayala willing to take on eachother, whenever and wherever. Also at Light Welter, though there was a dominant Champ on Tszyu, there were othe boxers with immense talent about (and disregard for their own safety) hence creating exciting match ups. All in all IMO, if there are talented boxers willing to take on eachother then there is an interesting weight division however of there are talented boxers avoided each other, then it'll be a "Yawn Fest" (RJJ and Michalczewski rings a bell there).
