Re: Why can't cruiser weight get more coverage I got a plan for the division.
There is nothing wrong with the CW division and it better be here to stay. It's necessary. You can no longer expect someone to jump form 175lbs to fighting guys that might weigh 250! It's ridiculous!
Of course CW will always be a stepping stone for HW, like Light HW before it! As if fighters don't step up from lightweight to welterweight or welterweight to middleweight as their careers progress and they get older and heavier! That statement is moronic!
I agree with the OP here, The cruiser division has produced great fighters and has held a high standard throughout it's history including today. Whenever you see a division with little American influence or relevance (i.e. the heavier divisions today) you see American fans trash talking the whole division or the era or both. It's just an immature response to something that is only a problem in jealous eyes.
