    I'm not big on the fart weight division but u could almost call them handicapped! Men are only meant to be that tiny in Gulliver's travels.. Leprechaun's!

    I am beginning to like SMW again. It has men who are representative of the normal male size & I actually think it is coming alive again after a period of mediocrity..

    I think Smith (if Hearn doesn't waste him) is a very good fighter.

    18/20 people KSAB.

    (reducible to a most simply expressed fraction of 9/10...which sounds wrong until you realize this is the lowest possible hurdle to clear of basic AF elementary boxing knowledge...)

    Poll is 19-3 in favor of SFW, and that nineteen includes some of the KSAB-iest minds on the site...

    There's far too many lower weight weight divisions in the midget weights.

    A new ****ing weight with 4/5 world champions every ****ing 4lbs lol. And some of those weight divisions only have like 200 or 300 fighters. The whole world doesn't compete in them. Hoe can you call yourself a 'world champion' It's ridiculous.

    Think of it this way. The higher weights are mostly dominated by north american, european and some african fighters. While the lower weights is dominated by asians, latinos and some african fighters. That should tell you a lot

    What should it tell people?
    These mofo's need to eat! 5lbs should be the absolute minimum difference between weight classes.

    Minimum weight should be 126lbs ffs men don't weigh less than that. These guys are starving themselves

    The only problem is too many divisions.
    If it was Fly and Bantam (112, 118) instead of 5 divisions (105, 108, 112, 115, 118) there would probably be far more interest.
    Of course, the same issue happens in the higher divisions but at the lighter end it's even more ridiculous.

    While i agree that some of the lower weight classes should just combine its not as if guys from the higher weights aren't killing themselves either to make weight. Heavyweights are the only guys nowadays fighting at their natural weights as they don't have a limit.
