What is the best division domestically?

[kosaros]

I would say the Welterweights, has the clear number one in Kell Brook and many others including:

Kevin McIntyre
Michael Lomax
Michael Jennings
Craig Watson
Matthew Hatton
Barrie Jones
Young Mutley
Tony Doherty
Curtis Woodhouse

Lightweight would have a good potential for some great domestic fights with Khan, Murray and Thaxton, although this will not happen if Khan beats Barrera. Apart from them three the division is not that great, Castle beat a very faded Limond (who is moving up in weight I believe) and there is a past prime Gomez in the division plus other potentially good fighters.

Light Welter and Light middle are good divisions :good

lmw imo.

the big 4, rhodes, moore, pryce and small are probably better p4p than the top 4 welterweights.

although the welters has one of the best fighters in the country in kell brook, and the best prospect in jamie cox

but then again the lightwelterweights include the best lighwelterweight in the world and a decent ex world champ...:think

Maybe the top four lmw are better p4p than the top four welterweights (i think so), but I believe if you compared the top 20 p4p the welterweights would win.

You forgot Jamie Cox for the welters.

Awesome prospect.

Featherweight isn't bad either, guys like Appleby, Lindsay, Matthews, Simpson, Truscott, Pickering etc.

[nufc16]

lightwelters have 2 world class fighters(witter, hatton), plus 3 very good european level operators aswell(barnes, mcloskey, lynes). dont think any of the other domestic divisions has that depth. although granted a weak division generally, so easier for those guys to be at a higher level.

[KCD]

I would say its the 147 or 154lb divisions.

Both divisions are stacked with domestic talent and there are some great fights to be made, also both divisions have probably been our best over the last decade.

[TFFP]

140...and very easily.

Hatton and Witter make any top 10 British list. McCloskey could have a case.

Decent operators below this also.

You left out the mighty Rees.

[robpalmer135]

lightweight

khan, arthur, thaxton, murrary, gethin, rees (probs) watson

[ninebar]

Light Welter has the most Class but not too many domestic match up's.
McCloskey vs Witter will be a good one though if Witter can beat Branco in Italy.
