    What is your opinon on 130 and below boxing.?

    I can only speak for myself, but when the weigh in below the weight of the average American female, no check that below the weight of the ring card girl, I just do not have much interested in it, nor do I have anything in common with the fighters.

    Aside from a handful of fighters ( Inoue ) they are mostly horse jockeys with gloves to me and I know zero fully grown men their size.

    Your take on boxing below 130 pounds is?​

    It's great, action packed fights, no maranading and no ducks. You're missing on some good match ups if you're skipping out on them.

    Personally, I follow all the way down to 122 lbs. Everything after is hard to find since they rarely get air time over here in the states.

      Exciting fighters and definitely willing to fight the next best opponent.

      Perfect example is carnela cherry picking and the heavyweight champion in fury not unifying. That simple.

        I like them, but those divisions tend to thrive when there's a big puncher making waves. I don't dismiss them just because they're smaller than me. That's a really ****** argument to make in my opinion.

          not really interested in them, the quality isnt very high generally as most europeans and black americans arent small enough for them weight classes. really you are considered freakishly small in most western countries if you can get down to that weight

            No bull**** A side/B side drama. They just always fight the best. What’s not to like?

              I remember when you had morales, barrera, JMM, Hamed, then pacquaio, all down there. They had a good run back then at 122-130 in the HBO/Showtime era.


              I never really catch those fights anymore. The guys down there dont really headline anything and I mostly watch the headline fights when I stream them.

              When I had HBO I would watch ALL the fights. Either live or replay the following week. Now I actually watch boxing less.

                Now that was good boxing. RIP HBO. There isn't much today below 122 lbs these days.


                When Japan fights Korea or China people are out for blood. You have to live there, so I'm told to understand why this is so. Many of these Asian nations are well a tad racist with one another.

                  I don't watch anything below superbantamweight. If I wanted to see midgets fight, I'd watch Jerry Springer
