    Comments Thread For: WBC Pleased With WBA's Adoption Of Bridgerweight: Our Initiatives Lead To Boxing Adopting Them

    The WBC's introduction of the bridgerweight division has been met with mixed reviews ever since it was announced in 2020. Boxing executives, media, fans, and organizations alike have given little credence to the addition of boxing's 18th weight class, which is sandwiched in between the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions.

      Not at all interesting to me. New belts, new fees, new 'Championship' fights. Fights no one will watch. BitchWeight.

        The division is a graveyard of fighters not good enough to cut it at the top level of cruiserweight or heavyweight.

            "The creation of this new weight will mainly help to avoid bouts in which the fighters enter the ring with excessive weight differences, as tends to happen at heavyweight occasionally, where there can be differences of 20 pounds or more," the WBA stated during its announcement"

            20 ibs or more, that can happen and almost happen in the lower divisions, the heavy guys are much better at adapting to a 20ibs difference but nada about the lower divisions where is much more significant

                Right? so someone can have a HW belt regular, be the unified Bridgerweight champion and come in a little light to fight at cruiser for a title?

                    So they're trying to push this division for scrubs who aren't cut out to be skilled enough to make it as a decent cruiserweight and don't have the testicular fortitude to make it at heavyweight...

                    People have been overcoming massive height, reach and weight disparities for all time, in fact some people at lower weights are rehydrating 25+ pounds whilst some guys are fighting within 7-10 pounds of their walk about weight...

                    And it's much more meaningful at the lower weights as it makes up much more of your body weight...
