New Weight Limits for IBJJF

JUST found this out straight from the source, IBJJF.... they have bumped up the weight limit's in most classes (I say 'most' because I was not aware of some of the smaller size limits before, so I am assuming they changed them) for both gi and no gi.  Important info to keep in mind; you still have to weigh in with a gi and belt so factor that into your final weight.

NO GI Weight Class in Pounds):


Rooster: 122.5 lbs
Lt. Feather: 136    (114 for females)
Feather: 149          (125 " ")
Light: 162.5           (136)
Middle: 175.5        (147)
Med Heavy: 188.5 (158)
Heavy: 202
Super Heavy: 215
Ultra: No Limit
