seems like pretty much everybody on here likes the lighter weight divisions best- which is not surprising since they're obviously much more exciting. am i imagining things, or do we all agree on this?
i think dana knows this and will be pushing 155 in the UFC (for example, on this season of TUF) and testing the waters of 145 with the WEC. if 145 goes over well with the hardcore fans in the WEC, i bet he'll add a 145 division to the UFC.
145 and 155 are my favorites. it makes sense that these would be the deepest divisions since the talent pool will be largest there: the majority of fit, normal adult males will walk around between 150 and 175 or so, which puts them in the 145 or 155 weight class.
170 is my favourite, followed by 185. One problem with the UFC's lightweight division is that the titlefights almost never get finished. Maybe the top 155ers don't hit hard enough to knock each other out, and are too fast to get caught in anything.
it depends on who is fighting!! I like 155 but would rather watch say herring/nogiera 3 rather than say weems/anybody, no disrespect but it depends on the fight. But I also go with quantity over quality meaning if I can get a dvd with 20 fights of nobody's or 5 with one real main event, I go with the 20!!!
