I'm just curious, how many adult males do you know that weigh under 170lbs? I know maybe a handful and they are all under 5'6. Why are over half the belts dedicated to 5-10% of the population? The average adult male weighs like 190. There shouldn't be 9 classes under that weight and only 2 above. That makes no sense..
You dont understand how mma weight works. Most of these fighters are cutting 20-30 lbs of weight to make weight the day before the fight.
Also, you are thinking of a small amount of people that you know and not taking into account that mma is a global sport and not everyone is a 220lb fatass across the globe.

Fair enough, so it's not legal for a 5'8, 160 guy to fight a 5'10. 175 guy. But it's totally cool for a 6'2, 210 guy to fight a 6'8, 275 guy. Explain that to me please..
