Outlook for 1942: After surviving a year at the top, Jackie Jurich may be set for a long run as WBA Champion, although ex-Champ Wolgast (although at Post-Prime) remains a top challenger and formidable force in the division, same for #2 Istvan Enekes, who is still at Prime career stage. Filipino Little Dado has been a disappointment, struggling just to manage to keep his OPBF regional belt and failing to rise to the challenge when facing tough inter-regional competition. Teddy Gardner, the newly crowned CBU Champion, is a bright new face and could be expected to develop into a serious title challenger in the next year or two. Inconsistent performances have prevented Kane and Monaghan from rising further up the ranks. Looking to the future, Dado Marino is the top prospect right now, and Terry Allen is the best of the four newcomers set to join the division in 1942.
