Association of Boxing Commissions looking to implement Minimum Fighters Weight (MFW)

[Eff Pandas]

Good idea for boxers cutting body fat weight but still doesn't address dehydration/re-hydration water weight. Body fat minimum combined with day of fight weigh-in would address both issues. When we talk about all-time P4P and GOATs it's good to remember the GOAT SRR fought WW at =/< 147, MW =/< 160 so did all the Golden Era fighters that today's boxing fans look at and say, he was too small, lacked power, etc. Well they are comparing them to today's 160#+ Welters and 175#+ Middles. With all today's weigh divisions MFW would work but would have been difficult with only the 8 original weight divisions.

Its a move in the right direction doe. I mean if boxing can be counted on for one thing its slow movement towards the inevitable. So if this could become a thing in 2018 thats a win towards progress at very least.

Definitely agree hydration is a relevant point in this discussion.
