weight cut does affect your chin...

Only if you're a pussy.
It doesn't have much affect on peoples chins, for reals. I've seen it first hand.

Lol one punch from shogun and luke wud be diededWeaker competition first off. Also The fighters at your underground dojo should definitely understand how weight cutting effects athletic performance. And as for the chin, it’s not the heavier weight that makes the chin better, it’s the hydration around the brain or something like that. I believe it’s been demonstrated that dehydration makes you more prone to being knocked unconscious.
With out IVs its not possible to fully hydrate back to 100% after a brutal weight cut. These guys are putting a lot of weight back on after weighing in but not 100% of their water weight. That absolutely can affect your chin.Only if you're a pussy.

The only win BJ has in the UFC that isn't at lightweight is Hughes. There was no variation in his success outside lightweight. He could only win against Hughes.Or BJ Penn whose all over the spectrum and fought in five different weight classes with varying levels of success (Hughes, GSP, Rodrigo Gracie, Lyoto Machida, Jon Fitch, Nick Diaz, Rory MacDonald).
He defeated Rodrigo and Hughes, and had a draw with Fitch who was the #2 ranked Welterweight in the world at the time. And I did specify that Penn was "all over the spectrum".The only win BJ has in the UFC that isn't at lightweight is Hughes. There was no variation in his success outside lightweight. He could only win against Hughes.
whats the logic in starting a thread on sherdog when you are a fucking idiot that doesn't comprehend the problems with cutting a lot of weight?
This is obviously referring to Luke Rockhold.
He can't take the shots at 185, even when getting hit by a fighter known for being somewhat pillow-fisted like Bisping, but thinks he can step up a weight class and take shots from fighters that hit even harder.
And yes, the bigger they are the heavier they hit. And no, being heavier doesn't mean having a better chin.
I don't understand. It goes against everything I train at my underground dojo.

BJ has literally fought from FW to HW. Insane.Or Frankie Edgar who preferred fighting bigger opponents at Lightweight so he didn't have to cut weight.
Or RDA who was fainting the night before his fight against Alvarez, moved up to Welterweight and is looking sensational thus far (looked awesome against Lawler).
Or Randy Couture who got knocked out against Liddell, retired, then came back and won the Heavyweight title off Sylvia.
Or BJ Penn whose all over the spectrum and fought in five different weight classes with varying levels of success (Hughes, GSP, Rodrigo Gracie, Lyoto Machida, Jon Fitch, Nick Diaz, Rory MacDonald).
The Rodrigo fight wasn't in the UFC, and a draw isn't a win, therefor...He defeated Rodrigo and Hughes, and had a draw with Fitch who was the #2 ranked Welterweight in the world at the time. And I did specify that Penn was "all over the spectrum".
