    Supermiddle Weight isn't That Deep of a Division

    People have ****ting on the Middleweight division because one fighter that don't like is head and shoulders better than everyone else.

    These same people pretend Super Middle weight is some deep division but it simply isn't.

    And it wasn't 5 years ago when Ward won the Super Six. Just cause you put a bunch of guys in a tourney doesn't mean it's a great division. Good but not great.

    Three of the Super Six members didn't even fight in the division.

    Froch is tough but lets be honest he's a B fighter at best. Abraham was ranked top ten after one fight against an unranked fighter. Kessler was dominated by Calzaghe. Ward was a nobody and Dirrel beat nobody.

    And now Abraham is #1 in the division and still has only beaten one ranked fighter in the division.

      SMW is indeed crap. MW is as well. Got to be honest about both and not prop up either.

          Most divisions are like that now. I think in most divisions it is because the top four fighters are titlists.

              Korobov has as many world amateur titles as all 3 of those combined and he's a MW. Check mate.

                    Worlds and Olympics are the same thing. Korobov was the better amateur fighter, and it's not even up for debate.
