I still don't understand the idea behind the current weigh in rules. 24-36 hours make absolutely no sense. The weigh in should be like an hour or two before the actual fight, at most. You get to your locker room, go weigh in, then go straight into hand wrapping. Easy peasy.

Boxing needs to be innovative here & maybe look into what ONE Championships (a MMA league in Asia) is doing with getting weight cutting out of combat sports. Its a completely unnatural thing they got mfers doing with this dumb ass sh^t.
Wish Nicholson well in recovery.

There is nothing that says you can't go above & beyond to make weight. Its not a rule violation at all. And in a competitive world people obviously will go above & beyond & the problem just grows from there.
Its just some dumb ass sh^t to begin with is the #1 problem. It makes no sense. It dangerous. Its dangerous & has problems with selling the sport to fans to do it on shorter notice cuz people will still cut weight & it will lead to more canceled events late when fighters don't make weight losing people money & therefore hurting the sport.
The obvious & clear solution is to rid boxing of weight cutting. And amateur wrestling (where this has been a bigger & historical problem longer then its been in boxing) & ONE Championships (where a guy died cutting weight) are great examples of how you change the weight cutting sport within the sport of boxing.

I do think for safety sake a bag of saline is worth just rolling out as standard. You can reverse acute kidney injuries very quickly
