is the whole point not to get them into the ring together at the SAME weight, as in no dehydration game whatsoever
so if that is the case why not weigh them like they do horse jockeys right before they get into the ring, hbo style, u have to be right on your weight class, if u are not the fight can still go ahead, for example u come in at 136 for a 135 fight but u pay a hefty fine to your opponent, a % of the purse or each pound u are over
it will make no difference to the fight even if a guy is 1 or 2 pounds bigger in the ring as the system TODAY results often in 10 pound plus differences in the ring so it will be a huge improvement there as well
