Remodifying Weight Divisions

[AntonTheMeh]

No Super-Middleweight???

Think of all the excitement and characters that division has hosted over the years

joe and kess would be light heavys.

It would be really difficult for everyone to adapt to these changes. They are just names, but they've been names associated with numbers and psyhique for decades. While it could be good for the sport's cleanup, it could also be bad for marketing the sport and losing fans.

what was joe's weight before his last fight do you know?

You clean up the sports by fixing the alphabet belt problem. Unfortunately a lot of people ignore the divisions below 135 anyway.

if that was just before the fight wtf is he doing at super middle when he can lose six pounds and fight in a more decorated division.

I think he has enough trouble as it is making the SM limit. He's been saying he wants to move up to LH for a couple of years now. So I don't think its an option really in his mind.

See what you're saying though, would be a more lucrative division, but the body's against him I guess.

He cant make 160. Vernon Forrest said it best on FNF. He could make 149, but those last two pounds would take something out of him. Just a couple of pounds go a long way.
