My boxing spectating is limited to multi-sports games, and even then it’s not much. That said, I always led to believe that the term “bantam” in English was to do with ghosts/spirits and such. For some reason, I think the word has Thai origins as well, so here’s my thoughts on your choices. Bantamweight is one of the lower weights, so I could refer to a measurement of rice (like a bag or something). With my association of the word with spirits, perhaps a squid is also possible, but that feels like a bit of a stretch. One could see how a cockfighting term could make its way into the popular vernacular for boxing, but I have no clue if that’s the case. Personally, I be shocked if it’s a reference to a rodent. Based off my brainstorm and limited knowledge, I’d go with A. Thai rice. Hope this helps in some way, sorry for my lack of knowledge here. “Sport has the power to change the world.
