Is there much in the way of weight cutting for the ADCC?

BlindSite posted:Is there much in the way of weight cutting for the ADCC? There's gonna be a lot less this year; the new rules have you weighing in like an hour before your first match, and the judges can request a second weigh-in (with a 2kg allowance) at any time during the competition.

This makes it more fair right? Or is it one of those things that everyone despises and says it ruins the comp?

Nierbo posted:This makes it more fair right? Or is it one of those things that everyone despises and says it ruins the comp? Well, it applies to everybody, so it's fair in that regard. It sucks a little more for people who naturally fall between weight classes (since in adcc there's a 22 pound spread between classes) but any system with weight classes is rough that way.

Probably a dumb question, but is it 2lb off the weight class weight or is it 2lb off what you weighed in at?

God all this talk makes me hard for same day MMA weigh ins. Pride never die! (Because they didn't really cut weight...)

Nierbo posted:Probably a dumb question, but is it 2lb off the weight class weight or is it 2lb off what you weighed in at? I'd imagine you're allowed to go up or down 4.4 pounds (2kg) either side seeing as some guys will probably sweat a bit while competing or fire down a small meal, drinking water etc. It makes some sense. That there'll be a fluctuation depending on when they hit the scales. I'd say it's just to stop someone cutting 10 pounds of weight or something and then trying to re-hydrate and re-energise in time to get on the mat, which I would think would be pretty counter productive anyway.

Speaking of ADCC here's a good list of people confirmed so far http://www.sherdog.net/forums/f12/adcc-2011-competitor-list-1672509/ It will be interesting to see how the final invites shake out, there's a lot of really good guys that could be invited so I hope they do a better job than they did in '09. There's a couple of guys invited who I'd just as soon not be but they're by and large former medalists so whatever.

It would never happen for a lot of reasons, but I've always said that they should do before/after weigh ins and if you are too far off either it's a DQ or has some other negative consequence.

That's what they're doing. At any point during the tournament judges can request a second weigh in, and if you're more than 2kg off you're DQed.

ya but how often are they going to do that? I guess if a guy just looks huge but it seems sort of hit or miss. Still, I'm happy they are doing something to address weight cutting.

ADCC always owns. 30 min grappling matches! beastly. 99+ kg was a wild affair last year, idk what that dude was talking about, Antonio Silva is a welcome addition, but I dont think he'll be the star of this show. I just wish budovideos streams were still free =(

No, obviously some guys had to work really hard to make weight but I don't remember hearing anything about anyone needing medical attention as a result of their weight cut.

the periodic fable posted:maybe they just like people to fight in the weight class they weigh in for Well, college wrestling had guys die before they instituted any kind of weight cutting rules, and even now it is nowhere near that. Having to weigh in on consecutive days is pretty standard for wrestling, and I know that there are BJJ tournaments where you weigh in before every match, but I'd never heard of having to make weight at all times during a tournament.
