Topic	why aren't weigh-ins for combat sports done before the match
MuayThai85 07/22/18 1:21:52 PM #11:	AsucaHayashi posted... i'd say it would be perfect to be weighing themselves right before they enter the ring. if they couldn't make weight right then and there, they would lose 100% of their purse to the opponent. Who is going to pay the fighter the now 200% purse? Because it sure as fuck won't be the promoter seeing as how the fight won't happen. No professional fighter is going to fight while not getting paid... All this would do is outright destroy events and cost fight promotions AND fighters a lot of money (not just the fighter who missed weight but also the fighter who made weight but won't be fighting and likely not getting paid because of it). Your idea would never in a million years work. OneFC has a good weigh in method. Fighters take regular hydration tests throughout camp and have to weigh within certain ranges leading up to the fight. It reduces extreme weight cuts while also increasing fighter safety. --- How can one person post so much stupid s*? <cite>MuayThai85 posted [p:905525328] in why aren't...
