Comments on: Belfort And Johnson Hit The Scales 3 Hours Before The Fight http://www.mmatko.com/belfort-and-johnson-hit-the-scales-3-hours-before-the-fight/ MMA Videos and News Fri, 24 May 2013 01:56:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Lodovikhttp://www.mmatko.com/belfort-and-johnson-hit-the-scales-3-hours-before-the-fight/comment-page-1/#comment-185735 Lodovik Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:26:57 +0000 http://www.mmatko.com/?p=22638#comment-185735 I agree with weight-cutting being a bullshit. What is the added value of that? The fighters are still about the same weight anyway, for instance most middleweights are at around 203. If the weigh-ins were on the fight day, it would not change the divisions much. On the other hand, we would never see a guy fade away halfway through round one, cause he had a bad weight cut. Every rule should have a reason. What is this rule good for? Please give me a serious answer, you can even call me idiot, but please include some answer as well.

Complaining about weight gain after official weigh ins…are you serious? Go back to watching tennis or something…then you’ll have nothing to complain about when it comes to weight classes. I agree…complete idiots.

Just as a reminder, MMA is a combat sport. Sack up and shut up.

Its not easy and if they can they deserve to. Rumble is just an idiot example of trying to fight smaller fighters and try to add extra weight lay and pray on them (read worried about Vitor). But this is a sport and everyone weight cuts as in wrestling, why do you think the early buyout of the UFC by the Fertitas installed a bunch of the wrestler protection rules. It was for more than just to protect fighters, it was aimed at protecting and promoting a certain segment of the game in order to get it successful in AMURRICA. Obviously americans do well in and love wrestling and for the sport to be where it is it had to go through the titos, koschecks, the hughes, etc to get the most important marketing base at the time, Rassslin’

It is one of the reasons fighting sports (including boxing) is regulated.

The guy is a fat 230 lb and he is 5’11″ and he beats the s*** out of guys basically two weight classes above him for a decade. get a clue

I like Rumble a lot but what the F***, he was way off this entire time.

If nother else, Dana should cut his purse DRASTICALLY. At least they allowed the fight to go on.
