        I have no interest in the smaller weight divisions but I'm not threatened by them and don't need them eliminated.

            It's hard to take em seriously when an average man could beat them up.

              This is a very weightist thing to say.

              It is a difficult one though, as I do agree with you to a degree. There is no real solution. As was seen in the UFC when they had not a lot of divisions, you had midgets trying to compete with much bigger opponents. Some of those midgets were pretty talented but just too small. In Asia the average height is 5'1 or something, so they get a lot of interest and activity in those low weights.

                You could take out those divisions in boxing and nothing would change.

                  true, the lower weight divisions are more popular in midget countries like china n japan n ****. Maybe they should make their own sport separate from boxing.

                    Inoue, Estrada, Gonzalez etc have skills and abilities AJ and Wilder could only dream of. 115 is the best division in boxing period.
