Best sub 147 lb boxers right now.

Lomanchenko/Chocalatito/Rigondeaux


Go ahead UG. Be real boxing fans here.


Sidenote: Stoked about Walters vs Lomanchenko. Kinda wish Vasily and Tigo were heavier classed boxers because I would love to see either one of them fight Floyd. World Class Boxing written all over either one of those fights. Phone Post 3.0

Rigo not Tigo Phone Post 3.0

Naoya Inoue. Dudes a real-life Hajime no Ippo character. Everyone is clamoring for him to fight Chocalatito. Personally, I think Chocalatito wins, but it'd be a great fight.

Walters ducked Lomachenko that fight isn't happening. 

Yes Inoue is a monster, sub 147, as every class under 147? If so add Crawford to that list. 

Rances Barthélemy

Oscar Valdez

Carl Frampton

Terence FUCKING Crawford Phone Post 3.0

How heavy does Vasily walk around? I was just in awe of his brilliance as I rewatched the Gary Russell Jr fight. He is a magician. 147 Lomachenko vs 147 Floyd? Still Floyd of nah? Phone Post 3.0

Just wish someone else at WW had that kind of brilliance and could take over for Floyd. I just feel like most of the guys at 147 now are just athletic tough guys. Not skilled ring technicians like the 147 lb fighters of the division's golden days. Phone Post 3.0

I wouldn't hold my breathe. Lomachencko is the best amateur I've ever seen. 400-1 with 2 golds. He's one of the most talented fighters I've ever seen. Probably the most. Phone Post 3.0

Loma could probably top out at 140

So Loma vs Crawford? 140? Loma by clowning or Crawford because of size? Also what was the line on the Walters-Loma fight? Surely Vasily was favorited heavily. Phone Post 3.0

Well he is 28. He's done growing. Also he has a 65" reach. That's not saying he couldn't beat guys all the way up to 140 but I don't think it would be a great career move to do that. 126 is loaded. Phone Post 3.0

Depends on his walk around weight and how much he cuts. Guys in their 30's move up still.

  Lomachenko appears to be as good as advertised. Gary Russel is very good, and Lomachenko outclassed him. I want to see the rematch. I don't think he is in the same league as those two, but Leo Santa Cruz wins fights. Chocalito obviously is good. Postol and Crawford are going to figure which is better at 140lbs. My gut tells me Postol my pose problems technically that Crawford might not be able to figure out.

They do I just don't think it makes sense. 26-30 is pretty solid with some names Phone Post 3.0

I feel like they get no love under 147. Good to see HBO showing Chocalatito some love. They are pretty high on Crawford as well, in terms of promotion, right? Phone Post 3.0
