    You're right, I'll add him.

      It's the division I'm following closest right now. Kind of reminds me of 168 a few years back before the Super Six fell to pieces.

        The 2 best (Hopkins & Kovalev) are fighting very soon, I can't complain about that.

        I would really like to see Beterbiev vs Stevenson... I forget what Beterbiev's business affiliations are/if it could happen.

        You don't like or acknowledge anyone but a few UK hypejobs and Muhummad Ali. You are a casual viewer & of course mix up all those "Jose Kalashnikov" guys from weird countries.

            That's good. They're def contenders in the division. Fringe none the less, but contenders.

              Yes, Murat and Shumenov would make interesting opponents for up-and-comers like Beterbiev and Alvarez.

                Beterbiev, Mekhonstev and Kovalev are the top 3 guys imo. Such a flooded division, hope these guys all fight each other.

                  Nah man, the list is solid. LH division is very interesting right now.


                  Edwin Rodriguez is another possible contender.

                    I'll add him to the list.

                    He was weight-drained trying to make 168 against Ward, he'll likely do better at 175.

                      Probably the most interesting division right now.
