How come some guys don't REALLY move up in weight?


Recommended Posts

Sometimes I'll have guys who never seem to make weight. They'll come in 5-10lbs over 2 or 3 fights in a row, so I move them up a class. This is where it gets weird. I've noticed this a couple times.

 

I'll have a guy, let's say he's a LHW. He's willing to bulk up to 230, but prefers to fight LHW.

 

But he keeps showing up for his fights weighing like 210-215 lbs. So I move him up to heavyweight, thinking now he'll just come into his HW fights at 230lbs, so he's just not cutting any weight anymore.

 

But he comes into his heavyweight fights at 206lbs. It's like, really? You can't make 205 for lhw fights but you can make 206 for hw fights?

 

I've noticed this several times moving guys up. I wish there was a way to fix it, if it's even really a bug. I have no idea. I don't know if it even affects anything but it's just weird to see on the weigh-in screens that this guy is coming into heavyweight fights sometimes outweighed by like 50 lbs.
