Usyk destroyed the Bridgerweight and super heavyweight concepts last night

[ShaneMosleySr]

What’s the point of Bridgerweight now?

The heavyweight champion is 220 pounds and the Bridgerweight limit is 225.

Seems like Bridgerweights are bad heavyweights who need a special division.

Also, what would be the point of super heavyweight?

Why would Usyk have to move up again to prove himself?

[ShoulderRoll]

Yes.

There's no need for either of those divisions. Skillful fighters can beat the giants.

[Tony Trick-Pony]

Yes.

There's no need for either of those divisions. Skillful fighters can beat the giants.

I definitely agree. Skillful guys have always beaten giants, going way back in the sport's history.

No more divisions needed if anything just adjust the current ones . Cruiserweight should be 220 , Light Heavyweight 190 , Super Middleweight 175 , Middleweight 168 . Super Welterweight 160, Welterweight 154 , Super lightweight 147 , Lightweight 140 , Super Featherweight 135 , Featherweight 130 . Super Bantamweight 125 , Batamweight 120 , Super Fly 116 , Fly 112

The structure makes sense but it would destroy the lineage and history of the original 8 divisions.

nah cruiserweight is high enough as it is. at 200 pounds, those guys are already 215-220 on fight night. if you made it 220, then that is like 235 fight night and that is almost all of the heavyweight division, effectively creating a bridgerweight
