Does anyone know what McGregor could realistically weigh come fight night?
I watch a lot of MMA and understand how fighters can cut considerable amount of weight. But what I am curious about is how much weight they can gain back in one day be re-hydration.
The latest I heard was that McGregor weighed 164 lbs by the start of the week.
This fight is scheduled to take place in the Super Welterweight (AKA Junior Middleweight) class with a weight limit of 154 lbs.
From re-hydration can McGregor get back up to 164 lbs? That would put him right under the Super Middleweight limit of 168 lbs.
Is it possible that he can be heaver than 164 come fight night? Could he be up around 175 lbs which is the Light Heavyweight limit. Could he be heavier than 175 lbs on fight night but still make weight for the weigh ins?
I don't know how much weight McGregor normally cuts for a fight and how much he actually ways during his fights. I know a lot of MMA fighters cut a ton of weight so what I don't know is how much they can gain back in one day.
