Pat Barrett and Joe Eccleston have launched a petition looking for support for a new division. The jump from light heavyweight to cruiserweight (175lbs-200lbs) is one of the biggest jumps in professional boxing weight classes. A new division at 187lbs would bridge that gap and put Boxer safety at the forefront, creating fairer match ups. 187 for safety! Petition will be linked in comments. Give it a read, give it a think and sign so this can be put forwards to the board of control. #187forsafety #patbarrett #boxersafety #petition #boxer
