    It's a good division with everyone moving up but still in development phase, far from the best but gaining momentum.

    There just isn't anybody in the division that really dominates their competition. The newest additions haven't really fought anybody or gained the necessary experience to be at their very best at 160.

    ggg arguably lost to both Canelo, Jacobs, lost every round against Brook, struggled mightily with Ouma.

    Canelo was thoroughly out boxed by Mayweather, lost plenty of rounds to Lara and Trout, fought just 1 active career MW.

    Jacobs was dropped by Mora, steamrolled by Pirog.

    Lemieux was steamrolled by Alcine & Rubio, looked less than impressive vs Rios.

    Dereyvachenko only has 11 fights.

    Andrade lost plenty of rounds to Culcay and Vanes.

    Charlo has 1 fight at the weight against a 1 legged fighter.

    In about 2-3 years Canelo, Charlo, Andrade, Derey, Murata, all should all be significantly better. We may even see a guy like Hurd transition to 160 as well.

        154 dying a bui down. I mean when Liam Smith is considered at the top of the division, it's slacking a bit

          Felt like it got better overnight with a Strong Performance from Andrade and a EXCELLENT Performance from Ryota Murata

          You also have to include Derevyanchenko and Maciej Sulecki as well in that mix. Maciej Sulecki is super Underrated because he don't have the Big Power but he is VERY SKILLED! Beat Jack Culcay last night after getting hurt, showed his toughness and durability

          So yes it is GREAT to see a division so rich in history back on top for sure!

              I'm just realistic. I've called out plenty of hype jobs over the years, the same people that overrate the same fighters.

                      1. GGG
                      2. Canelo
                      3. Charlo.
                      4. Jacobs
                      5. Andrade
                      6. Saunders
                      6. Myrota
                      7. Lemeuix
                      8. Derveychenko.
                      Charlo has one, no name win at the weight. Andrade has an even worse win.

                      You're ranking Lem below Murata why? Jacobs has...maybe one somewhat world class win at the weight...Canelo only fought at the divisional limit once.
