WHAT DOES SUPERHEAVYWEIGHT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Super heavyweight

In amateur boxing, the super heavyweight division is a weight class division for fighters weighing in excess of 91 kilograms. Introduced for the 1984 Summer Olympics, the division, despite its grandiose name, is merely the amateur equivalent of the professional heavyweight division. The superheavyweight division was introduced because the general increase in the weight of top heavyweights throughout the 20th century meant that the heavyweight division became excessively broad, with the smaller men having little chance of competing effectively. Therefore the bigger men were split off into the new super heavyweight division. Professional boxing also made this split, but instead of renaming the unlimited division, it introduced the cruiserweight division for the smaller heavyweights, and continued to call the unlimited division heavyweight. In the International Kickboxing Federation, the Super Heavyweight class is for boxers weighing 97.8 kilograms and above.
