    Although people say it is bad these days, I have always been most interested in heavyweight.
    I also like middleweight.

    I think in Europe people are generally more interested in heavyweight.

      I like the potential matchups to be made at 154, a lot of different styles there.

      Middleweight is heating up a bit also.

          140 probably the most interesting right now. Packed with talent.

            i can see 140 and 147 being solid in the next few years. likewise with MW and SMW. i like the young core of both divisions currently, and i think the guys are strong enough to move up.

              now that the division is populated by europeans, yes, i'd say so.


              historically HW was the division in america that mattered, though. your top 10 best known athletes in the states used to be baseball players and top 10 HW.

                "I do love me some heavyweight boxing." I like all boxing above 126 lbs. A fight or fighter has to be special to watch below that. Boxing has so much talent between 140-168 lbs right now that it is awesome. Make more : Canelo v Trout,Sergio v Chavez Jr, Pavlik v Sergio,Ward v Dawson 50/50 or even 60/40 fights.The HW division is the best that it has been since the late 90's/early 2000's. They need to man-up and start fighting each other.It is starting to happen now,finally.

                  140 with all the fighters in it plus it looks like there are going to be some good match ups this year. It's a shame that Rios is with Top Rank since most of the top fighters at that weight is with GBP.

                  154 and 160 has potential to be good if all of the fighters fight each other.
