Now, we all know that the UFC does not have a Superheavyweight division, and I'm not saying that there is a need for one, but.... A few years ago all the emphasis in the Heavyweight division was on smaller guys, smaller heavyweights, but as of late they have been muscled out by huge "monster" heavyweights. Many of the smaller heavyweights are better at LHW, meanwhile guys like Lesnar would honestly qualify better for a Superheavyweight division, almost like Bob Sapp. Why is this trend happening? Have we seen the last of the small heavyweight?
I think that this might be a coincidence and that it isn't the end of the smaller heavyweight. At some point the smaller heavyweights will start trickling back into the fold and start winning fights. Guys like Carwin an Lesnar don't come around all the time, they're a rare breed. Now guys like Cro Cop or Couture are much more available and they are of a more "average" build.
What do you guys think?
