    I generally don’t like when guys use this excuse. If that’s the case move up.. No you aren’t getting KOs because generally as a fighters competition level goes up the KOs go down.. Only the elite of elite power punchers maintain those KOs as the competition get better.

    I feel like when a fighter is drained its their stamina that suffers first. Spence has great stamina.

    If we do same day weigh ins, I believe we go back to all the brain damage issues due to severe dehydration again. They just need a better method. A while back someone mentioned year round weight checks, To make sure they are within a certain % of their fighting weight. I don't know. My guess is this will never be fixed.
