Boxing fans like to say divisions such as 154, 168, or basically any of the tweener divisions are historically weak, but why are we acting like 160 ain't weak too?
Look at the longest reigning champs on that division: Hagler, GGG, Hopkins, Monzon. Notice their resumes at 160? Most, if not all of their most notable wins are from fighters coming up in weight.
Hopkins' legend grew because he left middleweight. Even fighters like Roy Jones left that division too.
