I don't :P but I resist change.. and weight cutting as been a strategy aspect of this type of sport for a long... long.. time(also with that "rule" you could still put away 20ish lbs.. best deterrent is hydration tests.. and literally banning weight cutting..).
I'm with Davis on this.. this doesn't seem like a discussion on weight cutting at all but just people that are upset that Hardy lost and blame it on Johnsons ability to cut a lot of weight when that may have only been a very small part of the reason Hardy actually lost.
Has anyone even given a solid argument as to why the rule should be reexamined other then just because? I personally still see it as a fighters choice whether he does or not. He has to weigh his options and decide if it actually gives him an advantage.
