126lbs Strawweight 130lbs Flyweight 135lbs Bantamweight 140lbs featherweighT 147lbs Lightweight 154lbs Welterweight 160lbs Junior Middleweight 168lbs Middleweight 175lbs Super Middleweight 200lbs Light Heavyweight 220lbs Cruiserweight 220lbs+ Heavyweight In the modern era grown men shouldn't have to starve to weigh <126lbs. No grown man should weigh less than 126lbs. Also lets be honest who wants to watch midgits fight, the casual fan wants to see supreme athlete's fight. The casual fan would never call a <126lbser a supreme athlete more like a warm up to the main event just a sideshow really. Has there ever been a midgit <126 ppv headline? Not that I remember, no one would pay good money to watch that ****. (Unless Fury vs Chisora was the main event. If you weigh 105 do the right thing and eat something and make 126 :good
It should be like the UFC, 10 pounds minimum between divisions. The BS 3 pound differences in the lower divisions is a joke.
I laugh when people talk about midgits speed and stamina. Well their punches only go 6 inches, so sure you can throw heaps of punches quickly when thats the distance your throwing. A heavyweights range is far greater so the speed and stamina is an illusion really. Also Heavys throw about 100x harder aswell
I love how you have the nerve to call these guys midgets. They're far tougher and more skilled than you will ever be you stupid keyword warrior.
118 to 112 is the same jump as 140 to 147lbs by the way. You have to take into account the guys at lower weight classes have smaller bodies.
Thats the funny thing I'm no monster 6ft and 92kg around 15bf, no real training only a bit of sparring and plenty of bag work. I have good strength though spent years in the gym and have had plenty of tussles in my youth. Blokes 105lbs would not beat me, Hell to the no would they. Sure there's probably plenty under 126 that could, but they should they are professionals. I still wouldn't pay to watch that ****.
By the way I am saying if we fought today. Give me 1-2 years full professional training and I'd be competitive with those slightly bigger midgets.
Carbajal-Gonzalez I (108lbs) PPV Headliner and Ring Magazine Fight of the Year. Carbajal also won Ring Fighter of the Year on the back of it.
Each to their own I suppose. I like watching fights not pitter patter slapping ****. Thats all I see in those divisions.
Then you are watching the wrong fights. I much rather watch boxers at the lower weights then watch a Kiltschko grappling match. The skill level at the lower weights is much higher.
