Assuming there are enough people worldwide to fill a 48 kg class those look great.

With billions of people in Eastern Europe & Asia I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem.

I seen a lot of guys that would fit in that category

Nah. 48kg midgets are pretty rare in Asia nowadays. People are growing up not the other way around.

So much that they put a limit on the heavyweight class right?

I don't think dismissing the 100+ had anything to do with shortage of fatties but believe me you'll see much more of them than the midgets in Asia(East to be specific). I mean if there is a girl who weighs 48 in places like Japan or Korea, everyone will go nuts about how she should eat more and blah blah.
