    That's the most bizarre rebuttal I've ever heard toward this topic.

    makes perfect sense to me. being able to cut weight is a physical advantage. no different than being able to go 12 rds easily. or to punch like a guy 30 lbs heavier. you dont call those guys cardio bullies or power bullies do you?

    Because there's nothing to rebut.

    If he can make the weight it's fair game.

    Exactly. We don’t hold a man’s speed advantage over him. Nor do we hold his length or reach advantage over him. People always like to say that the fights begin in negotiations from the money, to the ring walk to announcement of names. Cutting weight is just as much a science of the sport as is technique. There is no such thing as a weight bully. A man makes the contracted weight, he’s good to go.
