Jose Sulaiman (WBC) "9.30AM FIGHT DAY Weigh-In Starts From July 1st" (AUDIO) - Page 2

This is a absolutely dumb rule.
People don't realize how dangerous it is to fight dehydrated.
People still will cut weight and a retarded rule like this will just increase the risk of deaths in the ring.

Many fans simply don't understand how hard weight-cutting is and seem to think same day weigh-in is the way to go.

No! dehydration in the brain takes days to fully recover and if you have to cut weight 2 times within a day than you going to see so many more deaths.
Dehydrated brain is linked to increased brain trauma from impact.
Thats why American Football players drink pedialytes in games.

"duuuuuh but it's not fair" They still going to cut weight, why shorten their careers and risk their healths by forcing them to dehydrate them self even more?

Dumb rule, trying to make themselves look more legit like the IBF

But the iBF only allows 10 pounds not 10%

Second of all lets take JCC jr for example. He can weigh in 16 pounds more at 930 AM and then has 12+ hours to rehydrate even more.

This rule will make no difference

It is funny because the reason they put in day before weigh in was for safety reasons and they are pretty much now getting the worst of both worlds.

Foolish stuff and boxers will be the ones paying the price, sad.

This rule could lead to a fighter ending up in a coma (or worse).

Guess Chavez is screwed then, maybe he'll have to fight someone his own size.

This does nothing, thats what fighters usually rehydrates to!!

the weigh-in is a BIG part of the fight weekend, adds promo and something to talk about up to the fight. i cant see promoters or even fighters getting on board with this.

i wonder if the math geniuses who defend the ibf rule and shoot this one down understand that 10% is only less than 10 lbs if the weight class is 100 lbs. smh...idiots.

Heres a crazy idea, how about if you are fighting for the 140lb strap you can only weigh 140 during the fight? Crazy Idea right?

Weigh Fighters 1hr before the fight, and have 1 reserve fighter waiting to go.

Im tired of people like Pwilly/JCC/Donaire being 30lb heavier than their opponents on fight night.

Just make em fight at natural weight class, none of this bloating and dehydration. Problem is that alot of Boxers are cowards so they cut until they are almost dead just so they can pick on people 30lb lighter than them on fight night.
