if you're proposing changing the whole system with something like the CSAC 10 point plan or the OneFC model, i agree.that's because the safety precaution created an incentive to cut ridiculous weight due to fuck heads like dolce manipulating the body through keto and carb cutting.
if you eliminate the incentive which comes from the body's ability to hydrate in 36 hours, you remove the cutting of weight.
if you knew your opponent was not cutting weight but you were, and you had to fight him drained, hungry, and mentally fatigued, why would you?
the logic of it makes no sense.
this same logic has worked for the whole "gym wars" and sparring. no top fighter engages in heavy sparring through their camps anymore. they know they are damaging themselves.
these guys spend thousands, in some cases hundreds of thousands, on their bodies for each fight. they are not idiots.
rempve the rehydration loophole and you eliminate weight cutting.
if you're saying something else.....well, i tried.
