So please stop repeating this and spewing "Flyweight isn't deep enough".
Let's get a couple of facts straight. Just like there are few 125 athletic men in the world, there are also very few athletic Heavyweights in the world. Furthermore, many of them are brought into the NFL.
So unlike heavyweight, competitive flyweights athletes are brought into the UFC and its not just the guys who didn't make it into major sports.
I can hear another argument, "But Heavyweight involves more risks cause of KO power"
This is not an argument either. Because Flyweight includes more skill-level risks to compensate for the (existing but fewer KO power). So, if anything this is in FAVOR of flyweights. Sure, you can get caught at Heavyweight, but the skill bar is significantly higher at flyweight to compensate for this lack feature. Name me a competitive flyweight in the UFC who has a bad W-L record like Mark Hunt, I'll wait.
At flyweight, you aren't getting lucky by winging shots.
