it's tough, there's no easy solution. i've been trying to think of a way to eliminate weight cuts. it's possible, they could implement something on the scope and scale of the USADA program except to test mass + hydration.
it would be very expensive and the UFC has zero incentive to spend this money. the fighters would also have a huge revolt.
i think the jury is still out on whether such a weight cut is even an advantage. i'd love to see tony at 170, maybe he'd be even more of a beast there. if people want to dehydrate and fight, let them, they're digging their own grave.
