1. A division between LHW and CW, because the gap is too big to step up naturally.
2. A HW and a SUPER HW division. This means some CW's could move up to HW as they won't be dwarfed.
Before everybody replies with "not more fucking divisions!" , perhaps some of the lower weight divisions should be scrapped or integrate? In this day and age Men are naturally bigger than they were 20 , 30 or 40 years ago. The lower weights are probably pretty dangerous health wise as well.
I mean, let's be fair the quality of the smaller fighters is brilliant, but what does a 5,6,7 or 8 weight World Champion mean? It's bollocks really.
There is no need or demand for 17 divisions, 3 is enough, 8 is great.
50% of divisions need to be scrapped
