    Already is becoming one of the hottest IMO but may not stay that way because some of the younger guys like lacy/Kessler/Dawson/Bute and so on will probably end up heading north to the LHW division before too long but maybe not either way to me there are alot of exciting young fighters in that range and can't wait to see how it all plays out.

      Allot rest on the Calzaghe Vs Lacy fight. Its better for boxing if lacy won as he is young and active but Calzaghe sdeems to have been champ forever..

        While I feel like Calzaghe won't be boxing in 2 years, and Lacy won't be at 168 then...yeah the division could be great should everyone stay around.

        I feel like Lacy will head up to 175 for bigger paydays should he beat Joe C. I'd love to see a fight between him and Kessler.

          I'd love to see Lacy-Kessler as well, and I'm anticipating Lacy-Calzaghe as much as any fight this year. I think Lacy is the best Super Middle around, but proving it won't be a cakewalk. Even if Calzaghe loses, I'd also like to see Calzaghe-Kessler. This is a very good division.

              Brahmer is the best in the division, Froch is also up there.

                Lacy is good, but he's certainly no Nigel Benn. Joe Calzaghe is the man to beat.

                    to those that know boxing, they already know that the division is one of the most talent-stacked in boxing right now, plus it shows alot of potential for the next few years as well since many of the top names are just coming into their own (Lacy, Kessler, Dawson).
