    The truth about weight divisions

    What is the middleweight champion of the world? It is the champion of a handicap division. If there were no weight classes, all of these small guys would get absolutely crushed. It feels ****** to call a little guy the p4p number 1 when literally thousands of fighters are able to beat him. I have Crawford and Lomachenko as my P4P number 1s, but honestly, it somehow feels wrong...

    Who doesn't remember the good old days in which Royce Gracie, the smallest guy of the UFC1 tournament, managed to beat all of the bigger guys in 1 night without taking a scratch? That's how you become a legend.

    Which is why weight classes exist. That's like saying Anthony Joshua's a better boxer than Lomachenko, because he'd beat him with his massive size advantage.

    That's a completely different combat sport, bud. In MMA, Royce Gracie could wrestle his way to victory. In boxing, Gamache got permanent brain damage, after getting punched out by a 160lb Gatti.
