    LIGHTWEIGHT DIVISION is LOOOOOOOADED

    Dan Rafael says its even deeper then Welterweight... very hard to disagree with that.

    You have Pacquiao and Marquez up there now, both arguable for the top 3 p4p, Pacquiao is #1 for many.

    You have Juan Diaz, Michael Katsidis. You have Guzman moving up as well. Valero is probably going to join them in search of big money.

    You also got Nate Campbell and Casamayor, of coarse, the 2 legit champs

    AND, i havent even mentioned David Diaz, Julio Diaz, Amir Khan, Kid Diamond, Zahir Raheem, and Santa Cruz.

    God damn that division is deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

    Yea it's a great division. Not to try start an argument bout Khan, but that's why i think he might not win a world title soon

      it is the most loaded division right now

      and you didnt mention the prospects like Petersen.

      and the game fighter edbner cherry.

      that division is loaded.

        Yea it would be near impossible for him to even become top 5, especially consider one spot above him in the rankings is Katsidis, who could very well beat him

          To be fair Khan needs to fight at 140...I think he has trouble cutting too much weight and its making him lethargic the guy is like 5 feet 10 he is a big lightweight...he could take a better punch if he moves up i believe.

          look at cotto.

            You see the Gomez fight!?

            Katsidis would beat him up. Maybe not win, but beat him up bad

              The moment Marq and Pac BOTH moved up with Floyd retiring it became the deepest division.

                    Katsidis - punching bag, new Gatti
                    Valero - beat a bunch of taxi drivers
                    Romanov - not sure about him, need to see more of him

                    Pacquiao,Guzman and Marquez are better than all those guys.
                    they all have a big size advantage though and we don't know if pac's power will carry
