Talk:Flyweight (MMA)

message: The original flyweight article is directed towards the sport of boxing, not mixed martial arts.  The two weight classes pertain to two 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 two 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.

message: Please help me understand why the only champion listed is from Shooto? Especially when 6 of the "top 15" ranked Flyweights (by Sherdogs standards) in the world have contracts with Tachi Palace Fights. (Mamoru Yamaguchi, Ian McCall, Jussier da Silva, Darrell Montague, John Dodson, Ulysses Gomez) Which is just as many as Shooto has on the same list.

replies: text: I'm not sure who's talking to who here... only Shooto is listed since WP:MMA or more specifially WP:WikiProject Mixed martial arts/MMA notability has come to the consensus that only the top tier promotions should be listed here.  Although I would support Tachi Palace Fights and only Tachi Palace Fights for Minor Organizations here... as they do have the most active flyweight division outside of Japan.(Justinsane15 (talk) 05:08, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
