Angulo vs Kirkland will be candidate for FOTY.
When it comes to the potential at 154, this fight is just the tip of the iceberg.Last edited by BoxingGenius27; 10-05-2011, 10:00 AM.Comment

When did 118 get so overrated? It's a strong division but it's not a clear number 1 like so many are making it out to be.
LHW and MW are going to be great within two years.
You got the current crop of LHW talent(Dawson, Hopkins, Pascal, Cloud, Sillkah) and all the top guys at 168 who will be moving up shortly and that will be a LOADED division.
MW in two years--Martinez(if he's still around), Pirog, Lemiux, Golovkin, a moving up Angulo, Kirkland, Lara, Canelo...who will all be more established in a few years(maybe).
Maybe it's just me but I don't think Perez, Agbeko, or Mares are really that good, let alone Darchinyan. Donaire and Moreno have serious skills, but Donaire will be gone from 118 after Navarez.Comment

I think that 118 is certainly one of the best if not the best currently. But in a few years time? Maybe not.When did 118 get so overrated? It's a strong division but it's not a clear number 1 like so many are making it out to be.

There has been so many exiciting fightes there over the last few years, though. And still more to come while it lasts.
It's hard these days for a division to stay stacked for a long peroid of time considering there are so many weight classes and fighters tend to jump weight a lot now.
For example, as you mentioned. 175 is prett weak at the moment but in a few years time if all the 168's move up which is likely, it will be stacked.
So a lot can change in a short amount of time, really.Comment

154 just isn't very good and its future doesn't look bright IMO. 160 will be okay, but I don't think it will turn out to be as good as some where making out a year or so ago.
Overall though, there's not a very bright future in terms of talent in regards to the sport as a whole.Comment
