Having so many weight divisions.

[Taeth]

Pros and Cons in my mind of having so many sub divisions.
Pros
1. I think the size discrepency between people is in the same weight category back in the day was too great.
2. I find it more exciting having more divisions because more people can excel at a weight better suited for their body type/style also has more depth.
3. I think the smaller weight change allows the smaller guys more of a chance of competing against a weight class or two above them, and it creates better hype because one guy is the champion at one weight and the other guy is the champion at another and its 4-7 pounds apart so who's better.

Cons
1. People can avoid other fighters by taking a relatively small jump or fall in weight compared to back in the day.
2. There are a questions mark in the multiple divisions at once like right now from 140-147 or 160-168 instead of having a consolidated champion every 15 pounds or so.
3. Individual talents have less depth of talent than before.

I personally think its better how it is now, but just wondering how you guys feel about it?, and what are the pros/cons for you guys.

Except for Junior Middleweight and Junior Lightweight all the other junior divisions need to go.

That include light heavy? If so I disagree completely.

I also agree.

We've seen wat happens in the past when light heavys have attempted to fight at 200 lbs. For example, bob foster against joe frazier.

It does make a lot of difference.
