Default Favourite division?

what's your favourite weight division?

i like the welterweight division. i feel like there's a broader range of fighters that i can relate to in this division. there's good guys, bad guys, funny guys, weird guys, cocky guys, dumb guys, etc.

what is your criteria for liking a division?

i think having a number of fighters that are fairly evenly matched that all have a shot at becoming champ (which would make you number one), and each fighter gives 100% every fight. being entertained or being on the edge of your seat is an important factor.

the lw division is a close second as my fav.

your thoughts?

I tend to lean towards the smaller divisions as well. Those guys are extremely technical and exciting. I don't mind Middleweights either. They're big like the heavyweights but are a lot faster, more athletic, and more technical with about the same kind of power. 205 is kinda unique in that it doesn't have many similarities to MW or HW. I'd say give it a little while though for Pride's divisions to get sorted out, because we'll be able to gauge it a little better after all that.

I like all of them, Lw and ww are fun to watch but i would have to say overall my favorite is lhw. I would have to say its because the majority of my fav fighters are in there plus they give hell of fights.
My fav fighter is in mw but that weight class is weak, it is the weakest ouf ot all of them. With Nog now in hw it is slightly over mw but not by much.

Chuck, Rampage, Bonnar, Griffen, Tito all make the lhws fun, but like i said i like them all.

All have there pluses, but I am a big fan of the middleweight. They are still super explosive like the lighter weights, but pack more of a punch like the heavyweights. Thought all weight classes are exciting.
