    Sure you did. Were they the same people that said MW was strong when Golovkin was fighting the Dominic Wade's?

      People are posting saying CW is a strong division. So how is it irrelevant?

        MOST MEN are 200+ lbs in the western world. the talent pool alone backs this.


        you'd have to hold a ****** pageant to get a pool of 140 lb men.
        Yeah, all the fat slobs that live here. Most men probably shouldn't be over 200 pounds unless they're over 6 feet or more.

          So it's not a strong division out of the 18 or so divisions only super fly, middleweight, and lhw are arguably better. How isn't it a strong division?

            I'll never understand this forum's tendancy to undermine other fighter's accomplishments in some backwards to attempt to elevate another fighter.

            The haters that troll this forum can't understand the fact that unifying 140 and 200 are equally great accomplishments that should be celebrated.

              So only the divisions with eastern Eurros at the top are strong?

                Has nothing to do with that, just because you don't pay attention to a certain division doesn't make it weak.

                  Crawford has yet to have a "career-defining" opponent.

                  Gamboa, Burns, Indongo, and Postol are all really solid wins, especially Postol.

                  But guys like Breidis, Gassier, Dorticos, are better overall talent, IMO.

                  140 was one of the weakest divisions, while 200 is without a doubt the strongest, and the deepest.

                  Whoever unifies 200, and let's be real, most certainly it will be Usyk (although I'm impressed with Gassiev, Usyk is a different animal), will have accomplished something much greater than Crawford unifying 140.

                  Now who is ultimately better overall, pound for pound, Usyk/Gassiev, or Crawford? well the verdict is still out on that.

                    Of course it does. Why leave out the strongest division in the sport WW? Because no eastern Euros on top. See right through you.

                      Forgot welterweight, very strong division but a bit top heavy imo. Still one of the best divisions, Lightweight and featherweight are solid too. Point I'm trying to make is cruiserweight is one of the strongest.
