Middleweight Division Moving Forward

[ProBox1]

After Hopkins stopped De La Hoya with a wicked body shot to the liver, the Middleweight division was considered Hopkins and whoever. After the most recent Winky Wright-Tito Trinidad fight, the Middleweight division is a division laden with potential great match-ups. Suddenly as the Hopkins marches into history, the division is alive with new talents, waiting to make their mark on boxing history.

In his last three fights, Wright defeated two Hall of Fame caliber fighters in Shane Mosley and Tito Trinidad. Wright didn’t just beat these fighters but for the most part, he dominated both fighters. Before Mosley, Wright was just another good fighter looking for recognition in a division dominated by more glamorous names like Mosley and De La Hoya. Now, Wright is accepted as one of the best pound for pound fighters and he has the skills to challenge the winner of Hopkins-Taylor. Winky Wright may just add the Middleweight title to his Junior Middleweight crown. [details]
