Junior Lightweight
It has some of the most exciting fighters in the sport. And they're actually fighting each other.

People are actually saying Welterweight?
The division is barren
You have a fairly unproven Thurman, Garcia who was very 'lucky' with 2 fights down at 140 winning a vacant 147 title (from Guerrero), Brook probably vacating the division, an even less proven Spence and Manny. Not sure where Bradley has gone.
Manny and Floyd carried the welterweight division for years. Even then, they were fighting at 154 or fighting 140lbers. If you really look at it, the division is pretty poor. Theres Manny at the tail-end of his career, and Bradley who has disappeared.
The divisions that stand out to me are Cruiserweight, Light Heavy, Super Feather, and Bantamweight. Honourable mention to 154, but most of the names are unproven.
The cruiserweight division is stacked and they will fight each other. I don't think any division comes close to it atm.
130 is loaded. Miura, Uchiyama, Vargas, Lomachenko, Walters, Martinez, Berchelt, Salido, Corrales and maybe even Pedraza if he proves to be anything.
The Bantams are overlooked too, with Payano, Yamanaka, Moreno, Warren, Mcdonnell, Haskins etc.

Cruiserweights never get no love because there are no Yank favourites about in it ****s cray its like the HW use to be such a big division and as Americans stopped producing big men they focused on midget men like Floyd and his lower tier division wtf....

The welterweight division would be a lot better if the guys there actually fought each other.
154 will pick up within the next year or two when the young prospects get more fights in.
115 and 118 are overlooked. 130 is my personal favorite though. We got Lomachenko vs Walters and Salido vs. Miura coming up before the year ends. Two very fan friendly fights.
