	Didn't Light Flyweight used to be called strawweight

	peanut4:	Jan 10th, 2009 at 21:03 GMT	4 points
	Yeah, I thought there was a strawweight. Also thought there was a cruiserweight.

	I think cruiserweight might be the same as light heavyweight.

	Cruiserweight is relatively new in pro boxing. Not sure if it ever existed in Olympic boxing. In the pros, light heavy goes up to 175 lbs and cruiser is up to 190, I think.

	This is the list of weight classes in the Olympics, as set out by the AIBA, which should be specified in the rules at the top to avoid confusion.

	I just thought of all of the weight classes that I could think of, and then just added "light" to all of them, but light lightweight didn't make sense.

	Why is featherweight heavier than bantamweight. A bantam is a hen. A hen is heavier than a feather.

	dont know anything about boxing and got all but bantamweight...

	they should call the lowest weight division "paperweight."

	Shouldn't have to type weight on each one.

	Was never what you could call a boxing fan, but because I watch all kinds of sports programming and reading general sports magazines, often heard many of the divisions mentioned enough times to remember most of them. Funny to think, by Olympic standards I'd be considered a heavyweight at 190 pounds.

	Roy Jones JR......is the G O A T

	same here, omnipotent. i've heard of lightweight as an insult, but didn't know it was an actual weight class. and i always found "light heavyweight" humorous.

	Jabbawocky:	Mar 10th, 2010 at 21:39 GMT	5 points
	weight shouldn't have to be typed.

	Sugarbearquizzer:	May 1st, 2010 at 21:50 GMT	2 points
	cruiser weight was definitely a go to

	zlb33:	May 17th, 2010 at 06:42 GMT	2 points
	it helps the listen to the rocky theme when doing this quizz.

	lpw88:	Sep 26th, 2010 at 18:03 GMT	2 points
	lol i guessed super flyweight

	ZardDog:	Nov 19th, 2010 at 15:50 GMT	2 points
	I think in pro boxing there is a super flyweight. I also agree that typing weight each time is unnecessary.

	JasonH1:	Mar 5th, 2011 at 23:19 GMT	3 points
	Cruiserweight and strawweight are pro weight classes. They're not used in the olympics.
