    What's your favorite weight division??

    The heavyweight divison been quite poor and boring for quite some time BUT when you have great exciting fighters in the HW division, there's really nothing like a heavyweight fight. They are the biggest, strongest and hit the hardest. If you're the HW champ you're the king of the jungle. To me heavyweight is the glamour division of boxing.

    What's your favorite weight class and why?

    It's always been 147 with 160 as a close second. There is a strong balance of speed, power, and overall skills that reside at these weight classes. They are typically rich in talent, though 147 moreso in recent decades.

      HW division. I realise there are better fighters in other divisions and the HW division isn't what it used to be, but nothing compares to a HW fight. I'm more excited about watching AJ vs Wlad than Canelo vs Chavez.

        Welterweight-147
        Featherweight-126
        Lightweight-135
        Middleweight-160

        Heavyweight hasn't been glamorous since the days of Iron Mike.

            HW for sure. But the best right now are 130 and 200. Although if Lomachenko leaves 130 that changes the dynamic there and 175 is rising again with some of the young guys that are starting to come through

                Are u talking about now or all time?

                Because right now there's no division where all the champs and top fighters are fighting each other.

                  The Heavyweight division is starting to come back now. Interest in the Heavyweights is higher than its been since Lennox Lewis. And I'm glad for that because boxing needs it.

                    Welterweight. Lotsa good names there for many exciting & fun fights. Plus there are always new guys on the horizon to challenge or get the torch passed to them vs the old guys.

                    HW is starting to get more interesting & I think there are a few guys on the come up still there where in another 3-4 years the HW division could be looking nicer than its looked in quite awhile.
