there are several reasons to get ride of this foolish weight in 30-36 hours before the fight.personaly im tired of fighters maskarading themselves as welters and middles etc etc when there realy LH or 168 lders or the welters are true middles..this is the case with every division..im tired of hbo havinbg a weight in the night of the fight and its always way above the limits of the division..if you did this 2 things will evolve..1.the 105 108 115 122 130 154 pound divisions will be gone because 95 percent of the fighters would weigh in at or very close to one of the original weight classes..thus eliminating these phoney divsions..there phoney by all means.2. it will pit fighters more evenly by weight.3. its a slap in the face to the fighters of the past who realy made the weight honestly...what are your thoughts..mine are very strong on this issue.

I think nearly everyone is in agreement that they should bring back the same day weigh in. If fighters like Paul Williams want to dry themselves out to fight smaller men they would not have time to rehydrate and would be weakened.

COMPLETELY agree. Weigh-in should be no earlier than noon the day of the fight.

I do understand why it really isn't feasible to have weigh-ins 15 minutes before the fight...but I'd really like to see it anyway Smile
