    Do you like watching bantamweight?

    So much talk about the heavier weight I was wondering if anyone enjoys watching bantamweight? Will you be watching the Showtime fight Saturday night?

    Yes.

    This time last year the Bantamweight Division was the most stacked Division in Boxing.

        Yea of course, if there are good fights.

        I just think it's recently been really overrated. There was depth in the division it's just that none of the guys were really that good. I'm not high on Vic, Agbeko, Perez, or Mares so I was never as high on the division as everyone else.

        Moreno and Donaire are the goods though.

                I like watching all boxing, but gotta admit I am less interested in the smaller guys usually.

                  I'm definitely not high on Mares, I'm in the small minority in thinking he looked awful in his last fight against Agbeko, even though he won that pretty easily. He looked wild and sluggish to me, in fact Mares, earlier in his career showed beautiful technique, at times reminded me of the Marquez brothers but now he's sort of like a Maidana on turbo. 118 is still my favorite division though, or you can say 122.

                    Absoultely. I'm glad it happened and enjoyed it thoroughly. I just disagreed with the almost universal notion that it was the best division in the sport. I have trouble getting excited about some of these guys is all.
