Yoel Romero made weight in my book

[Guy LeDouche]

Yes over 0.2 should be allowed

So 185.2 becomes the max weight for MW title fight, in fighters eyes

Fighter weighs 185.4

"Its just 0.2 over cmon!!!!!"

See what I mean?

Although I am on the side that he should be just allowed to fight for the title for .2 lbs over.

^^^This is a very fair point you make here.

 

[fightfan84]

Your book doesnt matter.

Rules are rules.

If he missed by 0.1 or by 25 pounds, he still missed

I think he means a different commission would have been ok with it, as in GSP when he fought nick diaz was over by .4 and that commission rounds down. its not a universal rule

 

[Pumphrey94]

Sucks if he had 5 min longer he probably would have made it

 

[Adjutant]

3.2 ounces......that’s gotta sting

 

[fightfan84]

Lmao how are people making excuses for that fat fuck? Make weight or fuck off to LHW. It’s not like it’s the first time he missed weight either. Really unprofessional and I feel sorry for Bobby who actually made weight and was ready to defend his title.

depending on the commission he made championship weight, I wouldn't say at this point he needs to switch weight classes, just be more aware of the rules where you are fighting

 

[TRUS8888]

its sympathetic attitude like this that has allowed Yoel to bend the rules his entire career.

hold him accountable ffs.

He missed weight two times in a row now, both fights being title fights. It’s pathetic, just move to LHW.

No dude championship weight is the save in every commission. You have to to be right on eight no one pound allowance. It’s his second time missing too, you sound like a pussy.

You are wrong.
New Jersey is on the dot. Neveda round down so upto .5
Quebec allows up to .9

Dude he doesnt have an ounce of fat on him wtf u on about

so theres many commissions that he would have been cleared for a title fight weighing in at 185.2 is what I'm saying.

I didn’t mean that he’s literally fat, just that he’s obviously too big for MW. He should just move up, missing weight for two title fights in a row is embarrasing.

Thats a fucking dumbass rule.

What if the commisions scale is off by .2? Did they calibrate the scale before he weighed in?

Thankfully, Soldier Of Scales is gonna' get murked on Saturday, Bobby keeps his title, and none of this will matter.

I know what you’re saying, it doesn’t really matter tho. Yoel knew that he had to make 185 on the dot but missed weight anyway. It’s unprofessional and I feel sorry for Robert Whittaker who made weight and was ready to fight.

 

[HelloJapan]

Some people here care more about fighters making weight than fighters fighting <Lmaoo>

This for fucks sake. You would think this a fucking Jenny Craig forum.

Lmao so we’re blaming the scale now? I’m done hahaha

come on, I'm sure they calibrate the scale... Those scales do not have a margin of error of 0.2 pounds. 0.2 pounds is actually a lot

nick diaz had the same argument against gsp. Other shitty thing is the commission stopped the cut on him while he still had time even tho there was a dr who said he could continue. Yoel was robbed here
