Middleweight division is suddenly HOT again?
Sure, the fight for the recognized true middleweight title was an absolute STINKER.
"However"
With the undefeated Jermaine Taylor, Kelly Pavlik (also undefeated with a stellar record in terms of stats), Arthur Abraham...things are beginning to get interesting...
HOT.....nah....
Some good fight could be made though....
Taylor vs. Pavlik
Taylor vs. Duddy
Miranda vs. Abraham rematch if Miranda can make weight without killing himself...
Winky is gone to fight Hopkins....Sperm is ass...
The talent pool in middleweight division is shallow from top to bottom.
There is significantly more talent at 168, which is why it's incredibly generous for Merchant and Lampley to make the case last night that Taylor would actually be taking the easier path if he fought Calzaghe instead of the more winnable fight against Pavlik.

“Boxing is made up of weight classes,” De La Hoya criticized. “Stick to your weight classes.”
“Whitaker was so slick and to me, he felt like he was in a whole different class,” De La Hoya said. “He was a southpaw and he had all these tricky moves and everything. But he didn’t mind trading with you and Mayweather didn’t want to do that.”
It is hot again, thanks to Spinks' arrival

I'm the only person on this board that can analyze any fight with out actually seeing it. So step back son.

Imagine Floyd-Spinks
All I know is the more people see Spinks fight, the less fans he's going to have

I was actually looking forward to that fight...I'd still like to see it.

You might need a therapist, my friend.
ARTHUR ABRAHAM HAS DONE NOTHING TO DESERVE A BANDWAGAN: FREE IKE, Mexican Wedding shirt (V.P and president of Western Europe division)
Roberto Duran's style was homosexual and Ruizian. Facts are fun.

I'm also looking forward to Hopkins-Wright.

I am but I think Winky is fun to watch and most disagree. He is an all action offensive fighter yet he is called a defensive wonder.

We agree on that, I enjoy watching Wright as well.
There isn't a high percentage chance for a knockout when he fights, but I don't consider that a pre-requisite going into a fight.

I can't stand Winky Wright. I'm hoping that Hopkins retires him.
Just how Jermaine Failure is recognised as the "True Middleweight Champion" is beyond me. He hasn't fought a middleweight since his last Fight with Hopkins. He didn't even beat Stinky Wright.
There is NO true MW Champ.
There isn't even a CONSENSUS #1.
Middlweight is HOTTER...but it ain't HOT.
