I wonder if the weight-classes could eventually be re-categorised into an order that functions chronologically; for instance, cruiserweight arguably should replace light-heavyweight, in fact, I think the light-heavyweight division is redundant when we have super-middleweight and cruiserweight divisions. Could there be some revision here, the taxonomies are a juxtaposition, as light and heavy I don’t think should be used concurrently in the same term.
The following is my weight-category listing idea:
- Minimum-weight (100-108Ibs)
- fly-weight (109-115Ibs)
- bantam-weight (115-122Ibs)
- feather-weight (123-130Ibs)
- light-weight (131-140Ibs)
- welter-weight (141-159Ibs)
- middle-weight (160-174Ibs)
- cruiser-weight (175-190Ibs)
- heavy-weight (190-220Ibs)
- super heavy-weight (220Ibs+)
The weight ranges are arbitrary, and will require more research before I can produce something more solid.
