No, it doesn't work like that, because the guys the weight class up are cutting 20 pounds as well. So even if a big weight cutter moved up a class, he wouldn't get guys his size he'd be undersized.
I know that and it can be understood that you are afraid to face a bigger guy, most people get scared by that. But that also shows signs about a schoolyard-bully mentality, you always need to be the bigger fish because otherwise you couldnt get your big fish money out of beating the smaller people.
I know they have to get their money to keep their families alive, but being the bigger guy is not what martial arts is about. But we also know how that is in real life, and especially in this sport, where in the history of the UFC only one champion has went up a weight division to challenge for the belt and for that he is bigger than the hero of time.
But seriously, if you cut +20 pounds, cant rehydrate, gas out in a fight and lose. Just please dont make up any excuses about a nurse or the IV. It was your decision.
