Exactly my point.... the average middle weight today has better formed muscles, more attention to his diet and different lifestyle habits.

The entire game changed in the mid-80's- not because of the changes in the day you weigh the men, but the way we changed as a human race- physiology wise.

If you went back to the same day weigh in you would have NO FIGHTS.... no one would make weight.
Maybe they would fight in their actual weight class
lol. Point taken.
