i think i get what you mean... but no it happens all the time!! most people who fight at a certain weight will grind themselves down and lose wieght before every fight!!
for example carlos baldomir when not training and whilst waiting to negotiate his next fight...
walks around at about 180 190 pounds and yet he fights at 147 crazy as it sounds it is hard to make wieght but like they said before he fought gatti..... hes like a tank he will be 147 pounds for about a minute and by the time the fight is on it'll be like boxing a tank because hes put alot of wieght back on!!
its a good strategy in some ways but for some its incredibly hard to make wieght but it works!
