The Division With The Most Depth?

Question

Explain to me, which division (no limit to organizations) has the most talent in depth and why?

Answer 1

Lightweight. Light-Heavy has to come in second. The main difference is there is talent outside of the UFC at LW (Dream has the best LW roster by far). If America got to see a lot of these guys they would be huge. Right now guys like Melendez, Gomi, JC, et cetera are semi-unknowns to most casual fans but they're amazingly talented.

The UFC has good LHW, but no one else does really. I vote LW because of the overall talent and the depth across organizations.

Answer 2

Lightweight and light heavyweight are the best.

Answer 3

Well, right now I would have to say light heavy weight,  you have so many people either moving up in that weight class.  Even if someone moves down a weight... someone is moving up!  Plus everyone is wanting a chance at that belt.  

Also lightweight, or featherweight.... is moving up extremely fast in the MMA world.... I mean look at Febor and Pulver...but along with all the guys like Tyson Griffen, Frankie Edgar, and Spencer Fisher, along with many many more they are making the weight class something to enjoy watching!  Plus it so diverse in the fact that there is lots of ground and stand up not just one or the other!

Answer 4

Lighter weight classes always have more depth.  The combination of explosive athleticism, skill AND SIZE is always more rare.

The UFC's LHW division is particularly deep, but thats just because they have all the top LHW.  If you combined all the global organizations, I'd guess LW would have the most depth.
