    They’re starting to have all these dumb interim belts and now they’re inventing gimmick belts like the BMF belt. There has been a lot of demand for more weight classes as well and I think that will happen sometime soon.

    Would welcome an update to the weight classes but these interim titles can do one.

    Agreed.

    165lb, 225lb divisions have been needed for years now.

    I have been saying this for quite a while now also. Joke circus belts, pointless interim belts, unwarranted title shots for certain fighters even sometimes fighters coming off a loss getting a title shot LOL how pathetic is that. The ufc always made out that they do what boxing fails to do but really is that correct ? The ufc over recent years has slowly for the worse turned into a boxing model.
