164lbs would basically become the murder's row of weight classes (an amalgam of 147/154/160 would be wild to figure out a top 15 would settle out), but you'd basically be left with a whole bunch of fighters simply getting fighting fit and figuring out what they want to do.
Fighting fit, pre any weight cut middleweight fighters are generally slightly bigger than junior middleweight fighters, who are generally a touch bigger than welterweight fighters. How the fighter manages their diet and how hard they're body is willing to weight cut usually draws out the lines.
add a +5lb check weight on the morning of the fight, and you'd basically end up with what most these fighters see in sparring anyway, just with small gloves and no headgear
