  • straw weight to junior lightweight

    why is it that from strawweight to junior lightweight some of the divisions are only separated by as little as 3 or 4 pounds. I dont care what anyone says but 3 pounds is not a big difference in a fight. They could easily split those into 3 or 4 real weight classes.

    This is why iam not impressed at all when people jump around through those divisions and win. Boxing is so ****ed up

    in the lower weight classes 3-4 pounds makes a difference.

    not so much in the higher weight classes.

    that's why the higher the weight class the bigger the difference between divisions.

    for me i say flyweight should be the minimum and get rid of all the junior and super classes.

    the original 8 plus cruiser is fine.

            You can gain/lose 3 pounds in a week, its impressive when someone like pac goes from 106 to 147 but when someone goes from 122 to 126 thats like nothing

              it makes a difference if you're killin yourself to get down to weight or the best fighter in the weight 3 lbs above you hits like a welterweight.
