Mighty mouse and Benevidez will benefit from this new division as will alot of other fighters. Weight cutting isn’t a big deal unless you’re a guy like Rumble who simply can’t recognize that his body is suited to competing at 205.

I already don’t like the fight many fighters walk around at 30+lbs their weight class!! If you can’t win at your weight, why not just try and get better rather than try to fight smaller people…
