Should they bring the 190lb division back as Junior Cruiser?

    Enzo would have fitted in with the former weight limit as he is small compared to the modern CW. Now he is boiling down to 175.

    The 200lb division is a big assistance to the small HW, but puts the big LHW at too much of a disadvantage.

    • Junior CW - 190
    • CW - 200

    No, if there is a need for another division then Crusier would need to move up to 215ish and the division below "slot in" at around 195.

    Thats not to say I think thats what should happen....;O)

    Yes, the jump from 12st 7ilbs up to 14st 4lbs is way too big, dunno if i would call it junior cruiser though.

    I would also make it 185/187ish lbs rather than 190lbs so its more in the middle of light heavy and cruiser.

    Naaaa there are plenty of top cruisers that dont even come in at 200 otherwise they would put on the extra few pounds and go the heavyweight division :deal

    From 154 to 175, a difference of 21lb, you have four divisions.

    Then 25 to the next.

    They could be rearranged, but no need for an extra division.
