Talk:Lightweight (MMA)

Article merging

The original lightweight article is directed towards the striking sports of boxing and kickboxing, not mixed martial arts. The weight classes pertain to completely different sports and feature unique histories that do not in any way intertwine and are complete unrelated. The weight classes are only similar by name; by lumping the articles together, you create a false sense of uniformity between the classes. In reality, there is no uniformity; for instance, there are many weight classes in boxing that are not even recognized in mainstream mixed martial arts. We've created these articles for mixed martial arts weight classes because there was a great deal of detail given to the sport by the state athletic commissions in regard to weight classes for mixed martial arts. This, combined with the unique history of weight classes in mixed martial arts (read Mixed martial arts weight classes for more information) should merit the creation and maintenence of articles for mixed martial arts weight classes.
