      1. Super Welterweight: Miguel Cotto, Saul Alvarez, James Kirkland, Erislandy Lara, Paul Williams, Carlos Molina, Vanes Martirosyan, Austin Trout, Alfredo Angulo.

      2. Super Bantamweight: Nonito Donaire, Rico Ramos, Guillermo Rigondeaux, Wilfredo Vasquez, Jorge Arce, Toshiaki Nishioka.

      3. Welterweight: Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, Andre Berto, Victor Ortiz, Marcos Maidana, Devon Alexander, Brad Solomon, Selcuk Aydin, Kell Brook.

        Are people still high on the super middleweight division? There's really only 4 fighters of note left.

          1. Junior welterweight
          2. Bantamweight
          3. Super middleweight
          4. Junior middleweight
          5. Featherweight

          Light heavyweight and welterweight could vault up my list soon. Welterweight will be adding a lot of talent from 140, and light heavyweight will be adding Super Sixers and Bute.

            I think I'd have to say that Bantamweight is the top for me. Less prestige, but better fighters and more of them.

            With Donaire...
            Moreno
            Mares
            Agbeko
            Darchinyan
            Donaire
            Montiel
            Arce
            Morel
            Perez
            etc

            That is monstrous.

            Then 140 and 168. 154 is not so good in my opinion. Some great match ups to be made with styles, but not great fighters. 126 is also brilliant. Just behind 140 and 168.

                1. heavyweight
                2. super middleweight
                3. middleweight
                4. cruiserweight
                5. light heavyweight

                Many will disagree, but those are the divisions I like best in that order.

                Different strokes for different folks.

                  1. Junior Middleweight and Its not even close. So many young exciting fighters.
                  2. Lightweight constantly gives fight of the year candidates with rios/marquez
                  3. 140 has been stacked with exciting fights and fighters for a hot minute now.
                  4. Super Middleweight super six was awesome.
                  5. Bantamweight was on fire all year with their tournament, donaire & montel
