For example what if Bradley wanted to challenge Miguel Cotto for the MW championship, why is it required that Bradley hit 155lbs upwards instead of his natural weight of 147lbs?
What if a Bradley feels he can beat Cotto at his natural weight of 147lbs, and why cant he challenge where he feels hes at his best weight?
If he won Bradley would still be king of the middleweight divsion despite not being the ring weight.
Another example is Mayweather, his natural fighting weight is 147lbs and a small one at that. But people seem to assume he cant beat champions in heavier divisions just because hes smaller.
Wrong, this man is fully capable of beating MW;s and SMWs because of his skillset, smarts and sheer talent.
I think there is too much emphasis on weight divisions, sure weight helps but it doesnt mean everything.
Its funny how you can have guys like Miguel Cotto who claim to be champions yet they would lose to welterweights.
Its like Roy jones beating John Ruiz, why did he need to put on 30 pounds of muscle to fight this guy? Roy at LHW would have beaten Ruiz with ease.
