Wrestling and boxing are both combat sports that rely on weight classes to ensure fair competition. However, their techniques and the nature of engagement differ significantly.

1. **Versatility of Wrestling vs. Boxing**:
   - **Wrestling** allows practitioners to engage in close-range control and grappling. This aspect enables wrestlers to leverage technique, strength, and strategy, allowing smaller athletes to compete effectively against larger opponents if they have superior skill or technique. The focus on control and takedowns provides a broader range of tactics.
   - **Boxing**, on the other hand, is primarily a striking sport where reach and weight can significantly influence a fighter's ability to land punches and avoid being hit. The distance kept in boxing can make size and weight more of a determining factor in matches.

2. **Adjusting Weight Classes in Wrestling**:
   - Adjusting weight classes could potentially promote greater inclusivity, allowing more athletes to compete against others of similar size. This might encourage participation from individuals who feel intimidated by larger opponents or who are at a physical disadvantage.
   - However, changes to weight classes could also lead to challenges in maintaining competitive integrity and could complicate the current systems and traditions in wrestling.

Ultimately, whether wrestling is more versatile than boxing is subjective and depends on the specific aspects one values in a combat sport. Adjustments to weight classes would need to be carefully considered to balance inclusivity and the integrity of competition.

I am not sure if this is accurate. There are many wrestlers in AEW who tend to be overweight. However, they generally tend to face wrestlers who are not equal to their size. Wrestling is a kind of sports where you have to be agile and strong. However, these are not the only factors we need to consider. So, is this the reason why we see thin wrestlers facing overweight wrestlers?
