    that makes the winner of their fight the champion of the division and begins a lineage for the title.

    much of their lofty ranking had to do with tim bradley moving up, and peterson being removed from the rankings because he's a drug user.

    it's a sh#t division and garcia is it's legitimate champion.

    i would like to see him fight mathysse. it's quite clear that they are the two best fighters campaigning at 140.

    I agree with everything except the bold. 140 isn't $h!t imo. Just that the bigger names have moved up & new stars are emerging.

        Oh my life, I just double checked and Khan and Garcia were #1 and #2.

        Oh man I guess Garica is the Lineal Champion

          these are dark and crazy days, my brother. i actually wouldn't be surprised now to see mayweather take garcia as a tune up upon his return from jail, and on PPV no less.

          maybe now that the king khan ship has sailed the carl the cobra steam train will start picking up some speed.
          david haye laying the blast on chisora probably threw a wrench in that, though.

            I personally also think Lucas is the best in the division, but Danny is the man to beat.

            Danny and Lucas fighting is more exciting to me than two years ago when it was gonna be Kahn and Bradley

            I hope it happens early next year. I'd like to see Danny/Zab with Lucas on the undercard against Maidana or even Morales. Winners fight each other early in 2013

                I was saying that if Mayweather fights again this year, and that's a big if, that Garcia may be the opponent.

                Only thing stopping it is Al Haymon.

                      It was a joke that backfired into GBP's face. smh.
                      IMO, the recent rule change was a set up to give Khan all the marbles, while overlooking Garcia's hunger.
