The only problem with this ( i have no idea about anything fighting/cutting weight struggles im just thinking business wise so correct me if im wrong), if they were to do weigh in's 1 hour before the fight and the fighters miss weight, then theres a possibility that theyll lose millions of dollars. Example, Paulo Costa vs Khamzat.. big fight. Millions on pay per view. If one of them were to miss weight, then the event is cancelled. Fighters lose money, fans lose money and ufc loses money. Lose lose lose situation all around.

Out of Khamzats 12 pro fights he's had 4 at 185, 4 at 170 and 3 at catchweights between the 2 with 1 fight that doesn't say the weight class. So he's been bouncing around his whole career.

I get the sentiment, but honestly if you can make the weight, you can make the weight. It's a part of wrestling, BJJ, boxing, and every other martial art. I see weight cuts like any other skill in the sport, if you can cut 25lbs but other people can only cut 10, that's not your problem. People feel like cutting weight makes it unfair, but you could say the same about throwing low kicks, cardio, power etc... It's a part of the sport, if you don't want to participate in it, fine but don't complain when someone else is operating within the rules, and hungrier for an advantage. Whether they fight the next day (after hydrating) or the same night (like they used to, and still do in smaller promotions) you will NEVER remove weight cutting. Hydration tests and everything else has been around for decades, it doesn't stop it, nothing will except removing weight classes entirely, which isn't going to happen

I've never heard of fights being stopped because fighters looked like s*** at a lower weight, Khabib and Conor have looked they were literally gonna die while cutting. I still believe it was calculated, they realized the match up between Khamzat and Nate was a huge mistake, Khamzat would have decimated Nate in that fight, Nate's a beloved fighter and I believe Khamzat took the blame out of respect for Nate since it was gonna be his last fight in the UFC, doesn't make sense to me otherwise.

@@kalocaploc124 No its not exactly like that in boxing, in boxing there far more weight classes than what i mentioned. And there are 4-5 different belts in every weight divison, and so different promoters and promotions involved, that is the other big factors that ruins it in boxing that we don’t have in UFC. All i am saying is adding just 1 more weight class, 2 if you want to inlcude 195. The leap from todays 185 to 205 is 20 pounds . 155 to 175 is 15 pounds. There would be less fighters missing weight as until today that has been a big issue in the UFC. And i would argue against what you said, we would definitely have more and better match ups. As there more comfortable and reasonable weight classes with not such a giant leap. So the fighter can get in the best fight shape without complaining about the weight as there are then a weight class for every 10 pounds. There would be more champion vs champion match ups also.

3:44 I have said this ever since Khamzat won his first fight in the UFC. No BS. He isn’t a 170lber. He’s a real 185 who was picking on people in the 170s. And when he fought a real 155er that has to hit it hard to get to 170 in Burns. He went to WAR!!! Khamzat is trying to cherry pick. And I think he needs to fight guys like Paulo, Pereira, Covington, Usman, the gatekeeper Whittaker, Adesanya. He starts fighting guys like that and winning. We know he’s legit. He’s been picking on 170s and the only hellacious fighter he’s fought was Burns. Everyone forgets he ducked Leon Edwards in 2021 due to “Covid” but a week later he was FULL health again “smeshing” everyone. I think the dude is a freak and you know hes good. But fight the real OGs instead of ducking them and letting them beat theirselves to death by actually fighting each other like men. He’s just biding time waiting to pounce and hold onto his zero losses after everyone’s else has done all the smeshing. Mark my words that’s how it’ll play out.

Not necessarily. It could be that some guys are so used to being so depleted when they're cutting a lot that they're not aware of the difference in their performances when they don't (which I believe was the case with a lot of them initially). There could be a marked skill increase when guys stop cutting as much (I've read about a number of guys who were spending almost their entire camp just focusing on cutting weight). The cut could be affecting certain guys more than others (for various reasons). The variables are endless. You're probably correct to an extent about the talent, but I guarantee you if they spend the necessary time and money the talent will come. Just look at the growth of the sport in the last 10-15 years. When I started watching regularly lightweight was the lowest of only five weight classes. Think of the career Frankie Edgar would've had if he started fighting at bantamweight.

​@@beastwaynes4868 There is definitely a lack of talent at the higher weight classes. Just look at the UFC roster. There are only 73 HW's and 66 LHW's currently active on the UFC roster compared to 133 LW's, 117 FW's, 111 WW's, and 104 MW's. The only weight class change that can be justified is creating a 165 and a 175 while getting rid of 170. If we started splitting up the higher divisions you'd end up having divisions of 40-50 guys which makes no sense. And talent is never going to come to those higher weight classes simply because there are not enough men on the planet to fill those weight classes. If you took all athletic men on the planet and told them to pick a weight class, 80% of them would fall between 145 and 185 after cutting weight. There aren't enough big guys in the world to make the higher weight classes competitive

@@benlewis5312 I agree. I'm definitely not advocating for a new weight class every 10lbs, _especially_ not in the heavier weights. I do think 10lbs gaps between 125 and 185 makes perfect sense though; and I'd be very interested to see what would happen if all fighters had to be within 10lbs of their fighting weight between signing on the dotted line and the moment their first foot touches the canvas. The quality and numbers of the roster by weight will always fluctuate though, and LHW in particular is as weak as it has ever been currently imo. That's why I think the UFC needs to be a little flexible, and maybe try going back to the original format with the heavier weight classes. Hold a handful of grand prix tournaments for 200lbs upwards, then do an Ultimate Ultimate every year during international fight week or something.

Khamzat at 185? Meh.. Will he be as effective? Probably not. It ALL comes down to how much energy will that easier cut give him. He may find himself with a gastank for DAYS!!

​@@micahwest2793 185 to 205 isn't that bad. There are currently only 66 active LHWs compared to 104 active MWs, so there is far less competition moving up a division. Also as fighters start to get larger, weight differences matter less since nearly everyone has KO power and unnecessary weight slows fighters down. It's especially evident at heavyweight where you see guys like Gane (248), Jones (249), Miocic (240), and DC (251) doing just fine against HW's that have a 15-30 pound weight advantage

There is absolutely no way in hell Khamzat needs to be fighting at 170. I don’t care how often he makes 170. The dude is gigantic at 170. Bigger than every other fighter at 170, comfortably bigger than all of them. He is very appropriate for 185 though and I do believe he could win that belt. I even think if he bulked up to 205 (which he does often walk around over 200), he could give a lot of those guys real problems. 1:33 Alex Pereira absolutely has no business at 185.

Khamzat didn't "miss weight". What I think is that the UFC decided to save Nate's ass/honor and put Nate then against a Tony Ferguson completely roasted.

Pretty sure UFC told Khamzat to not make that weight. Khamzat had no choice but to miss that weight.

Why aren't classes based on height instead of weight? Seems more fair and would eliminate the issues with cutting down weight.

Does UFC have weight check-ins with commissions during 8/6 week camp?

Re: Edwards Usman 1 why doesn’t anyone mention the first round where Leon mounted Usman. One could argue that’s the thing that changed the course of all of it. That’s what sort of set up the head kick imo

Put the weight classes at 10lb increments all the way to 225, and weigh in the day of the fight. Stops the damaging weight cuts, and makes for better performances in longer fights. Also, it is easier to get a back-up if someone is injured late in training.

There should be a compulsory weigh in like twice a week in a center somewhere (video cameras etc) and the average weight you get over like last 1 month.. this is your weight. Solved!

pretty simple make them fight on the same day as weigh ins. then they will fight closer to their most comfortable weight and have no time to pack it back on

After the initial weigh in when they have the final face off before the fight they should have to weigh in again & be no more than 5 over.
