what if weigh-ins had stayed on the day of the fights how would this of affected some of the top fighters and overated fighters of the last ten years hatton for me would of been just another chinny welter/or tubby light middle
It's not a case of them eating to gain weight- most of the time they intentionally dehydrate themselves. You'd be suprised how much water in your body weighs. As for weigh ins on the same day- health and safety prevents it and I'm 100% behind it. I don't wanna see two dehydrated, unhealthy guys fighting each other and see someone get seriously hurt.
Starving and dehyrdating themselves a few days leading up to the fight. They eat and drink after making weight, and some fighters have doctors inject them with IVs.
It's a process. Usually 2-3 days before the weigh in. Dieting mainly and sauna/running to sweat it out as well.
