      Fair enough TS, I like the way you organized it without leaving massive gaps.

      I read all of the time about ppl wishing there was no CW or super anything, this is just unreasonable at this point for obvious reasons.

        Heavyweight 200+
        Cruiserweight 200lbs
        Light Heavyweight 180lbs
        Super Middleweight 170lbs
        Middleweight 160lbs
        Welterweight 150lbs
        Super Lightweight 140lbs
        Lightweight 130lbs
        Featherweight 125lbs
        Bantamweight 120lbs
        Flyweight 115lbs
        Light Flyweight 110lbs
        Strawweight 105lbs

        it's not really a big change but it cuts out most of the divisions with the super name attached. With the exception between cruiserweight and LW every division above Lightweight is every 10 pounds between divisions and every division under lightweight goes down to 5 pound between every division. Cutting the divisions down from 17 to 13 divisions. The divisions that got cut are junior middleweight, super featherweight, super bantamweight, and super flyweight. The titleholders in the divisions that got cut become the mandtory challanger in a higher or lower division of there chooseing if there is already a mandatory challanger in certain organzations then they become the #2 contender but are guanteed a title shot within one years time.

        It would be nice if boxing would realine the divsions but the WBA would probably start making 4 to 5 titleholders per division making them the super duper undisputed diamond champion and the interim bronze champion.
        You forgot the greatest Hoax of all time "CATCHWEIGHT"

            Remove 105,115,and 168, or better yet just remove the 2 day weight and make it the morning of the fight so that these cheater are not wieghing 10 to 15 pounds heavier than the other guy
