Some of boxing's best live in the 135 and 140-pound divisions with plenty of massive matchups expected soon
Over the past few years, the lower weight classes have been the most compelling in boxing. Even as some of the higher weight classes have seen long-awaited fights come together, the depth of stars around the lightweight and junior welterweight divisions make the divisions consistently compelling.

From Gervonta "Tank" Davis emerging as arguably the face of boxing to Ryan Garcia's bizarre behavior mixing with his talent to create entirely unique situations, the divisions never fail to provide entertainment.
