I agree. We need less divisons. Why not go to the 11 weight classes in the amateur divisons? Men's Weight Divisions Light Flyweight 48kg =105.6 Flyweight 51kg = 112.2 Bantamweight 54kg = 118.8 Featherweight 57kg = 125.4 Lightweight 60kg = 132 Light Welterweight 64kg = 140.8 Welterweight 69 kg = 151.8 Middleweight 75 kg = 165 Light Heavyweight 81 kg = 178.2 Heavyweight ( call it crusier weight ) 91 kg = 200 Super Heavyweight 91 kg +201+
LOL....I don't see a difference between 217 and 220 for Tyson. What does three or four pounds mean? You can't even see a difference of three or four pounds. But Tyson was a big heavyweight if you really look at his stats. I mean, Tyson weighed about the same as George Foreman did when he won the title from Frazier - 217 - but Tyson is about 4"-5" inches shorter than George. And Tyson didnt have hardly any fat on him, either. Tyson at 220 looked a lot better than Joe Frazier did at the same weight!
