    Even further down the list is not that bad Vanes, Clottey, Kirkland, Trout.


    Then there is the European contingent of Jonak, Rabchenko and Baysangurov.


    Then younger guys like the Charlos and Andrade, then one of the top prospects in Errol Spence although he could start at 147 he is more of a 154 poounder.


    Seems pretty talented, with a mix of known guys, unknown guys and up and comers.

        160 sucks. Even 135 is better, which says a lot. Canelo, Lara or Sturm, Quillin, Macklin, Geale lol let me think about it

          What makes you think Canelo is such a good fighter? Did the Josesito fight convince you?

              There's some good talent coming up in this division. I wouldn't list Clottey, Smith, Nelson, Vanes, and Rabchenko as top fighters though.

                  Hopefully canelo can become something real because hes not there yet. But yeah 154 is really overrated considering the #1 fighter is a welterweight in mayweather.

                    He didn't have to use up extra energy trying to find Angulo. If he actually had to use his legs to close distance, Canelo wouldn't have been able to throw but about half of the amount. If Lara makes him chase, his output is going to be horrible.

                      there's some good talent now, including everyone you mentioned … but if you try to shat on it historically, you'll quickly learn how foolish that is.
                      The division is still riding on Oscar's popularity, was what I was getting at. Canelo is trying to take the handoff, for as long as he can make weight.
