[@HondudeTeamMudhogs]

@@karlmarx1868 Just something to note, Yoel didn't bite on any of Izzy's feints, Costa was eating all of them. That reaction from Costa gives Izzy info and opportunity. Izzy didn't have that same info and opportunity against Yoel. That's why it was a very slow paced fight.

[@techstacker5361]

Regarding missing weight and fines, the only relevant word that isn't brought up by anyone is **context.** No situation is the same, should someone who drops in last minute get fined the same as someone who had a 12-week camp to make weight? No matter the context? GTFO with that binary thinking. Define some missing-weight standards > then choose a fine-percentage based on that. For example: **Short notice :** - 48 hours ~10% - 1 week ~ 20% - 2 weeks ~ 30% - 3 weeks ~ 40% - 4 weeks ~50% - 4+ weeks ~75% And if any fighter misses more than 5lbs, they get fined an extra 10% per pound. This type of penalty system is easy to implement, and it would immediately make everyone take it more seriously. Don't forget, when someone drops in last minute, they also give the opponent an _opportunity_ to: 1. Do the job that they trained 3 months for. 2. Get a win bonus. 3. Get a performance bonus (50k) which could change their life. So how about approaching the issue a bit more rationally?

Wanted to see izzy get knocked out but hey it is what it is. Hes a beast theres no doubt about it. Paulo was being an idiot in there. All he had going for him was closing the distance. Couldnt even do it.
