    147 might be the most overrated division ever

    Garcia looked whatever tonight. He had a close fight with Porter and Thurman, who had close fights with each other. Spence has a close fight with Porter as well.

    Pacquiao looked to be a class ahead of all of them when he beat Thurman convincingly but he lost to Jeff Horn.

    Crawford is a top 5 p4p guy but hasn’t proven himself at 147 yet.

    I think there’s a chance this division isn’t actually tough and that perception was created by promoters and their commentators pushing a narrative.

    None of these guys have proven themselves, except Pacquiao, and he’s 40-something with a loss to Jeff Horn.

        Pacquiao is the only active HOF'er at 147 currently.

          You should have enough class to just start posting in it all by yourself on fight nights. We'd appreciate it.

              You can't count Pacquiao in your little diss. He's already a proven hall of famer.

              The rest I can somewhat agree with and are open to speculations and debate.

                Pacquiao is a legend but he is in 40s now and has lost to Horn. I believe that’s definitely worth mentioning.

                But I appreciate that you’re not willing to just accept what promoters and announcers say is true like everyone else on here.

                  Let’s not be delusional, Horn got a gift. 154 is loaded with mediocre talent which makes them evenly matched but not at all intriguing.

                    Horn lost.

                    A gift from his country.

                    Put that fight in U.S, Mexico, Puerto Rico, or any other boxing country, that fight is automatically a DQ win in favor of Pacquiao.
