No love for Lee Selby?

Featherweight is popping right now though.

[JimEarl]

Walters
Rigondeaux (if he moves up)
Gonzalez
Mares
Lomachenko

I'm a featherweight fan from way back and would love to see Rigondeaux in the mix should he have to move up to get fights. Rigondeaux/Walters would have to be a winner with Walters putting the pressure on like Donaire never dared to do.

I still like Donaire for that matter but I don't think he can carry the power into the 126 pounders.

[SlySlickSmooth]

1. Lomachenko
2. Walters
3. Gonzalez
4. Gradovich (robbed of a win against Velez)
5. Mares

I believe Donaire is moving back down and its unlikely that Rigo fights at 126.

.........and its unlikely that Rigo fights at 126.

He seems a little light for the division alright but we'll see how hungry he is for the payday if the superbantams keep hiding out.

1) Jhonny Gonzalez - Beating Abner Mares in a brutal fashion and retiring a bloated Arce is what got him here.

2) Nicholas Walters - KOing a bloated Vic and stopping Nonito Donaire in six is what got him to number 2.

3) Abner Mares - Beat a legit champion in PDL for the strap and although he got KO'd in the following fight he has had 2 decent comeback fights. Oquendo whom was a past contender(Mares looked like sh#t) and a decent fighter in Jose Ramirez.

4)Evgeny Gradovich - Should have won against Velez, beat Billy Dib twice and although he's the weakest champion in the division, he is doing good for himself even though he is quite limited.

5)Vasyl Lomachenko - Massive fan of the guy but realistically speaking he didn't earn either shot at the title. Has fought 2 worthy and notable opponents out of his 4 professional career and has displayed immense talent by beating down Kokietgym with one hand. If he keeps this up he will for sure carve his name out in the PFP rankings in the near future.

6)Robinson Castellanos - Two great back to back victories where he stole away the fight from his opponent in their own backyard. Not only did he derail a promising Ronny Rios but he also retired veteran Rocky Juarez. The new Salido of the division

7)Jesus Cuellar - Brutalized Lopez in 2 and beat a former World Champion in Rico Ramos. Not bad but neither fighter was world class at the point of the fight, hopefully he steps up and leaves the Tamayo's of the world for Gary Russel Jr.

8)Simpiwe Vetyeka - Talk about a dramatic turn of events for the guy. One minute he is flying high after dethroning and retiring an Indonesian boxing legend in Chris John and the next he loses his belt to Nonito in a controversial manner. To top it all off Nonito assured him he would get a rematch but the Donaire ends up losing his belt before the fight goes down. Regardless, he has won a fight since and is attempting to climb back to were he once stood at.

9)Gary Russel Jr - Why? Because as of lately little Gary grew a pair and is now being pitted against the monsters of the deep. Fighting Vasyl Lomachenko was one accomplishment for his hollow resume, attempting to go against the Bomber man himself in Gonzalez is a whole different story. Gotta respect T Rex arms here for his bravery.
PS: Gonzalez via KO

10) Marvin Sonsona - I almost didn't put this lazy fighter on the list but Sonsona is a monstrous puncher with good speed!... until he gasses 3 rounds in His inactivity is beyond atrocious but he did revenge his lone loss last year against WV2 in a sloppy fight to win the NABF title.. meh, I suppose that's something.


The Featherweight division is great but I still believe the Flyweight division is the best and most underrated weightclass in the sport. Oh well, to each his own I suppose.

Great list, and LMAO at the bolded.

So many great fights that could be made at this division, defiinitely one of my favorites. Hopefully we do get Lomachenko/Walters as is being rumored. Keeping an eye out for Oscar Valdez waiting to see him take on a serious contender this year.
