    Report: The ABCs negotiating a potential new weightclass

    According to this video report, they are negotiating adding a new division between cruiser weight and heavy weight. Any thoughts?

      Instead of having a weight class between cruiser and heavy why not just make a Super Heavy weight division?



      175lbs- LHW

      200lbs: Cruiser

      201-239:Heavy Weight

      240lbs and up : Super Heavy Weight




      Boxing changes just like every sport and the athletes are changing. Everyone thats about 240 pounds or more should all be fighting guys that weigh 240 or more.

      Also I think with a SHW division regular Heavyweights should have to cut just like every other weight class where Super Heavy Weight there would be no limit.

            I'm guessing this is basically what they mean.

                    Because the cruiser weight division has been so goddamn popular since it's introduction.
