Good decision, he's always been a small guy...and he'll have some good power at FLW.

I could have swore he's said a few times that he couldn't do it. Kind of interested to see how his gas tank is at 125. He'll have far more power and strength than most guys in that weight class though

He's going to be a huge flyweight. He matches up well with a lot of the top guys

I'm excited to see how he does at flyweight, he should fight John Moraga first.

It's about time. I think he can be much more successful at 125.

I don't think he'll beat Benavidez either and uncle creepy is 50/50.

Scott wouldn't beat everyone except Johnson considering the fact Joseph Benavidez is also a flyweight and owns a win over him at bantamweight.

Great move for Scott Jorgensen, I don't think he could have won against the top guys at 135. I could see some more Bantamweights moving down to 125 to try and get to title quicker, considering how shallow the flyweight division is.

Jorgensen always came up short in the key fights at 135, this is a good move for him.

Interesting.

If this is true I like it. I think he could do really well at 125. Hes a small 135er and I don't see him ever coming close to another title shot there so dropping down is a good idea in my opinion.

Chico Camus is also thinking about moving to 125.

@Benjamin Yeah, I think both guys will be successful at 125.

Camus was getting outmuscled by Kang, this is also a great move.
