Yea...I've been looking at the Super-Middle rankings and there aren't too many notable American names. It's a division that hasn't had much limelight, but I believe it's all about to change.
The thing is Kessler is still only 26 and is younger than both Lacy and Taylor. I've been re-watching some Kessler, Lacy fights and for me now, I'd favour Kessler over anyone in the division. Lucian Bute, the much touted prospect is only a year younger than Kessler. The division is loaded with talent atm from fighters all around the world. You have contenders like Froch, and Andrade, throw in a couple of Aussies, Mundine & Green, then you got the old timers, Calzaghe & Beyer. Not bad at all.
