Easy solution to fighters missing weight

[PrideJitZoo]

Automatic loss. No pay. I guarantee you’ll see shit change.

Or just stop the weight cutting

labor lawyers would have a field day sadly.

as ridiculous as it is banning weight cutting seems like a utopian fantasy, which is fucking bizarre.

 

[TheIrishPsycho]

People will still miss weight.

Very few fighters go into fight week knowing they will miss, most are from fuck ups, sickness or injuries during fight week.

Would ruin the 'sport'

 

[Fincher7]

Deduct a point for every pound they're over.

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

bring back PED's.

they make weight cutting much easier, and fighters won't gas as much.

Yep; I used to deal with this nonsense in powerlifting. One org allowed 24 hour weigh in and had guys nearly killing them selves then showing up 20 pounds over the class when they lifted. The other org weighed in 2 hours before the meet and people had no choice but to lift in the class they were naturally closest to.

20% of purse per pound over, applied multiplicatively so they will at least get some money.
1lb over: receive 80%
2lb over: receive 64%
3lb over: receive 51%
4lb over: receive 41%
5lb over: receive 33%
10lb over: receive 10%
20lb over: receive 1%

Suspend them from fighting for 1 whole year. That will make them think twice.

Suspend them from fighting for 1 whole year. That will make them think twice.

unfortunately even with 2 year bans for ped's fighters will do what they can for that edge...

 

[milliniar]

1 point per 1.5 pounds over weight class.
So for example Wonderboy would've had a 10-6 after first round or Till would have a 7-9 round at best.
And Dern would have to finish like she did to win

 

[Tuaminator]

Every pound they are over weight they get a finger broken.

 

[lostdog000]

negative point in judging for every pound over?

 

[cenksinan]

I have a simple solution.missed weight once,no problem.missed again,you r going one division up.no fucking negotiations,no second chances.

Booby trap gun pointing at their head while on the scale. You go over, bang

Mackenzie Dern approves of this post.

 

[Thc Sargon]

They should have to fight on their knees.

I like this idea. This and if you miss weight 3 times you're cut from the organization. 3 strikes and you're out.

???? How so???? They are contracted for that weight. The loss would be more a commission thing than a labour issues
