By James Le Blanc: Golden Boy has announced they will be holding a 4 man tournament at 140 pounds consisting of Zab Judah vs. Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson vs. Lucas Matthysse. The winners will fight each other and then the ultimate winner of the tournament will more than likely face Amir Khan. Amir Khan is in the process of returning to 140lb supremacy after losing a controversial decision to Peterson and then a 4th round knockout loss to Danny Garcia. People have different takes on the Super Six tournament. One thing we know about the tournament is that it left out title holder Lucian Bute for some reason.
Bute is arguably not one of the best Super middleweights as Carl Froch made easy work of him post tournament. And then there were a number of fighters that backed out of fights and needed last minute replacements to ensure the tournament went on.
By Andrew Garewal: Arguably the most dangerous and exciting division in boxing today is at light welterweight. At 140 lbs, boxers possess uncanny speed, elusive footwork and explosive power. Nowhere in boxing is there such an array of talent in which multiple fighters could be crowned legitimate champions in their own right.
By Andrew Garewal: Due to the large response and comments, I have decided to update the list to try and capture a consensus list. I have removed the rankings and will allow you all to comment on who you believe is the best. This list is composed of active fighters who are at or nearing their prime. You may believe some great boxers should be on here for their body work from the past, such as Miguel Cotto or Floyd Mayweather.
by Andrew Garewal: A critical part to the sweet science is the use of body shots. Hooks to the body can crack ribs, tear organs and expose a fighter upstairs. Straights and crosses are critical in setting up combinations to the head and establishing distance and strategy. Not only do body shots wear down an opponent, but it also limits the power and output which they can produce in later rounds. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Promoter Eddie Hearn is saying that his fighter unbeaten welterweight Kell Brook (29-0, 19 KO’s) will be fighting IBF welterweight champion Devon Alexander (24-1, 13 KO’s) on May 18th on the undercard of the Lamont Peterson vs. Lucas Matthysse card in Washington, DC.
By Ryan Wardle: Current IBF light welterweight champion Lamont Peterson ( 31-1-1, 16 KOs) successfully defended his title against Kendall Holt ( 28-6, 16 KOs), in his return to the ring on ESPN’s Friday Night Fights. Peterson’s return comes after a 14 month layoff after testing positive for a banned substance. Kendall Holt is a former WBO light welterweight champion and was a good test for Peterson’s first fight in over a year.
By Dan Ambrose: We could be seeing IBF light welterweight champion Lamont Peterson (31-1-1, 16 KO’s) facing WBC light welterweight interim champion Lucas Matthysse (33-2, 31 KO’s) on May 18th, according to Steve Kim.
By Dan Ambrose: WBC interim light welterweight champion Lucas Matthysse (33-2, 31 KO’s) could be back in the ring fighting on Showtime in April against a still to be determined opponent, according to Steve Kim. 
By Dan Ambrose: The fight last month on January 26th between WBC light welterweight champion Lucas Matthysse (33-2, 31 KO’s) and Mike Dallas Jr. (19-3-1, 8 KO’s) sold only 1,137 tickets at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to Dan Rafael.
By Allan Fox: The drug tests for last Saturday’s fight on Showtime between WBC interim light welterweight champion Lucas Matthysse (33-2, 30 KO’s) and Mike Dallas Jr. (19-3-1, 8 KO’s) have come out negative for performance enhancing drugs.
