Future Lightweight Champ?

[DrewWoodside]

Who will be running the lightweight division one year from now? I think it's about to turn into one of the more exciting divisions in boxing. A lot of different possibilities here, what do you guys think? There may be a better answer i didn't put int he poll so if you have one say why you like him.

one year - Diaz

two years - Khan (after diaz moves up)


Khan will have a belt before then though, just won't be the recognised champ like diaz

[DrewWoodside]

I love Pacquiao but IMO it will be between Katsidis and Diaz. I give the edge to Katsidis cause although Diaz is very solid Katsidis really looks like he could clean everything up.

I really don't see Diaz moving up any time soon. If anything, now that he's done (or almost done) with college, he might lose that bit of belly fat he has and move down to 130, where his power will be more effective.

Khan looks great and I expect him to be a major force in the next year or so but I hope he doesn't falter under all this pressure. He's pretty much been dubbed Christ already.

Juan Diaz is going to be running things for a looooong time. He is very young, and he still has that baby fat stuff so as he gets old thats gonna go away, so i think he'll be able to make 135 for a long time

Katsidis hits harder than Diaz and he's just as busy. No one thinks Katsidis' offense could offset Diaz' game? I don't think these guys are as far from eachother as everyone believes.

Ok, anyone not vote on this poll? I've been saying its Katsidis all the way.. When i started this thread Juan Diaz was still Christ lightweight. Any new predictions for this division? When i made the pool i didn't missed putting in Cambell.. oops so post if that's your pick.
