So we found out at UFC 205 that in New York, if you miss weight, the fight can only still go on if both fighters are within 5 pounds of each other. Which is why Kelvin vs Cowboy got scratched from the card. So my question is, does this apply to the HW division? That's the only division where guys actually weigh in at their normal weight (except for the rare guys like Brock or Bigfoot) and the gap is huge between fighters sometimes. Think Randy vs Brock. Brock easily had 50 pounds on Randy. So does this rule apply to the HWs in general? Because it seems silly to only impose this rule when a fighter misses weight.
