One has to ask: "Are the penalties severe enough to discourage this?"

What about the poor opponent who's left holding the bag? Who has spent months training responsibly only to find the opponent has made a sham of the whole process. Who has sacrificed to make the weight only to be told: "So sorry..... fight's off, unless you want to fight an opponent who outweighs you."

Time to add a little more accountability for fighters who don't make weight.
