What? No, khamzat couldn't get any lower than 178lb that's what he weighed in at. Holland was the one that was already below 178lb.
Then they made it a catch weight of 180lb so that khamzat wouldn't have to large of a weight advantage.
God damn, talk about revisionist history
Not true, doctors told khamzat to stop cutting, and in his own words he said "I made my weight back up to the guy" meaning, to match Hollands weight
Here's straight from Wikipedia:
Chimaev was paired with Kevin Holland, initially scheduled to fight Daniel Rodriguez at a catchweight of 180 pounds
