Rooting for Liz to smash Ilima Lei, she was never any good! :eek:
 
Why people in the media (whoever this is) dont know the most basic rules of combat sports sanctioning?? Or who green light this?? Challenger misses weight, champion cant lose the belt as they are not fighting a flyweight...its a catchweight fight, its a non title fight.

This reminds me on how the whole UFC staff of the weigh-in show were not sure what was happening when Oliveira missed weight, like its something so new or anything...champ misses weight, champ loses the belt, former champion wins, title goes vacant, challenger who made weight wins, they can still be the champion...yet bellator somehow fucked this.



PS: How did CSAC sanctioned this? Considering they are a decent AC when it comes to MMA.

thx
 
I know im late to the party...please someone explain this to me, it should be simple, Challenger misses weight, they can still fight, it can still be for 5 rounds if they like, but it cant be for the belt, it isnt really, but for some reason the champ can still lose her belt in this fight, for some reason...
If you miss weight you can't retain or win the belt. That way if the champ misses, the challenger can still win the belt.
Otherwise you end up with the challenger potentially beating the champ, but no belt being on the line.

It will count as a title defence this way instead of just a fight as it has happened in the past.
