Is 160 the best division in boxing right now?

[satiev1]

Two fighters in the p4p list. Canelo and golovkin. You got charlo that just moved up who's an elite level fighter, danny jacobs, bjs, eubanks jr, lemieux. Even contenders are strong at 160 like khurtzidze and derevchenko. I think p4p 160 is the best division in boxing. Better than 147.

160 is buttholes

Nope, it's HW.

You've got skilled tacticians like Fury and Ortiz, KO artists like AJ and Wilder, promising rising contenders like Parker and Big Baby, and Wlad still in the mix.

"Two fighters in the P4P list"

So does LHW, Ward and Kovalev.

But no. Saunders is mediocre, Eubank Jr is untested, we already know Lee's and Lemiuex's limitations. N'Dam hasn't fought anyone decent since 2 years ago (Lemiuex) and he lost. Khurtsidze is underrated, had him beating N'Dam comfortably.

Canelo, Golovkin, and Jacobs are good. Jacobs has proved himself with his performances vs Quillin and GGG.

It's, tops, a 4 fighter weight class. LHW is better with Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev, Alvarez, Barrera, Stevenson, Smith Jr. All those fighters have beaten someone good. Can't say the same for those guys at MW.

With that said 130 and 147 are the best. 175 a close 3rd. HW is a solid 4th place.

We have no idea what Fury we're going to get after that lay off though, plus the cocaine scandal. Coke destroys fighters. He has 17 months and counting without fighting.

Uhhhh, what?

Beterbiev and Sullivan have a weaker resume than Saunders. Neither one has truly beaten someone good (well, define good). I think Beterbiev will be a top dog eventually, but right now, he's no different than a Sergiy Derevyanchenko or Maciej Sulecki at the middleweight division at this point. Immanuwel Aleem & Ryota Murata are two more prospects to look at.

Plus, you have Jermall Charlo who just moved up to middleweight and remains to see how well he fits in at that weight.


I would still give the edge to 175 over 160, but in a year or so time that can very well change. There's more prospects to keep an eye out for at 160, IMO.

No. 160 is one of the weakest and the ****tiest divisions for the past 15 years.
