    Devon Alexander is to blame.

    Amir, Maidana and Bradley all delivered. Alexander failed against Kotelnik and went chicken-mode against Bradley.

      That has more to do with the guys at 140 having fought each other now. Attention is usually paid more to potential matchups, like there are at 154.

            Every division now is more loaded than the severely overrated 140.

It's probably getting more attention because of Alvarez but I believe he is just a passing fad. I'm more excited about having Kirkland back. This eliminator tournament should put out some good fights.
              I like the guy and yeah he was practically given the title but if he can defend it against some solid names then he should be recognized as a true champ.
              and if he truly is the next golden boy then this fad is gonna last bout 10 years

                yes 154 is loaded now

                140 have a lot of OVERRATED YOUNG FIGHTERS, guys who are trying to be pushed as stars but neither of them is ready! It is not just Alexander but it is Khan, Ortiz and Alexander...they all have loses and they all have so many flaws RIGHT NOW...but they are all still very young and neither have reached their PEAK YET...but right now besides Bradley...I am not all that impressed by that 140 division, most of their HYPE is off of their potential and NOT because of what they have done in the ring

                after Bradley destroys Khan...the 140 division is DONE!

                    so glad kirkland is back, he did not look happy when gibbs went down, still got his killer instinct

                    out of them fighters kirkland is my favourite, he is so entertaining. I would like to see him KO margarito
