..but then that's never been the criteria for setting rules as far as i'm aware.

I like to see the fighters having as much freedom as possible and if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Too many rules as it is already ( just my opinion).

The majority of the people who make these rules are still caught up in the mindset of boxing, heck these changes were made by The American Boxing Commission, the same people who gave us a great 10 point must system!

I agree totally. Having anymore weight classes is just redundent and stupid. People who argue more weight classes act like you can fight in the 170 class and only weigh 168........... I know dropping weight is a key to size but size isn't everything which fighters prove all day long by moving up in weight like anderson is doing. The weight classes are fine and I hope I never see the day that there is a belt for every 10 lbs.
