If there were only like four weight class with 30 or 40lbs between them I think people would be less inclined to make dramatic weight cuts and be able to fight at more realistic weights.


40lbs would be a RIDICULOUS amount of weight to give up in any grappling/clinching based combat.

I agree, weigh em before the match. Just change their fucking weight class if they cant make the lower class. None of this dudes arguments are making any sense right now.


It doesn't make sense to you because you've likely never competed in any kind of combat sport in your life. Weight cutting has always been a part of combat sports. From Olympic wrestling to pro boxing and it will never go away. When you have weight classes, people will always try to make it to the lowest possible weight class they can make. Amateur wrestlers have literally died because of same day weigh ins... Not just adults but high school wrestlers.


This, mainly. It's a part of the very culture of these sports and it won't go away. The more responsible thing to do is safeguard the well-being of the fighters doing it.

Weight cutting in fighting (and in some other sports) is water weight. Guys cut at least an entire weight division and then rehydrate to a much bigger size for the fight.

It was astounding at the time, an incredible experience to play a Zelda game reimagined in a 3D world.

It certainly suffers today in comparisons to modern big adventure games - particularly the largely empty overworld, incredibly basic combat and bad pacing but, eh, that's just progress.

If Witcher 3 came out in 1998 it would have been the best game of all time, but it didn't.
