I think someone is afraid that little Joey might have to wrestle someone 5 lbs more than him in the lower brackets.
five pounds for a 50 pounder is quite a bit more to over come the a 125-150 pounder. You have to compare percentages, not just pounds. My 12/under 68 pounder looks like a dwarf compared to the 72 pound weight class. The 95 percentile for an 8 year old is 80 pounds. Does anyone have the statistics on how many kids we are talking about that are 8 years old & weigh over 140 pounds that wrestle? I am at the opposite end of the spectrum & am having a hard time getting my head around an 8 year old of this size.
