Thanks Ocra, it is sad to see not many middleweights around, as light/middleweight seems a bit more forgiving than feathers with weight, but less overwhelming than a full-on heavy.
I am going to disagree with this. MWs might be half the weight limit but they are an order of magnitude more difficult than FWs to build and maintain and if being honest, MWs can be as big as HWs so have the same sort of space requirements in terms of storage and transport. By the time you factor in the costs of the parts and materials as well to fight in the class, I can see good reason why MWs are often a overlooked class.

That being said, my preference is still fight in the MW class rather than build up my existing MW or new MW to a HW. I often ride solo to these events and lugging a MW around is challenging (a HW damn near impossible) and I prefer the challenge of building within the much tigher limit.
