    I know in the beginning there were no junior divisions. I mean the gaps between weight classses of today are different. From Fly to superly is only 4lbs. From Lightweight to super became 5 lbs. Then from 140 to welter is 7 lbs. What's the basis to all of this. Can they not just have made the gaps five pounds throughout going up from minimumweight to super heavyweight. Your thoughts???
