Does that even register?
I mean, 'normal' guy hair style, not waist long dread locks....

I read a story the other day, where the fighter was 2 oz over her weight. She had long hair and cut off half of it. Weighed in 1oz under her weight. It was not UFC but some other fight org....

I always have, and always will, think people who cut weight are fools.

There was a guy I knew in the air force. Sgt Bako. Hairiest guy I've ever met. So hairy his shirt was puffy looking from all the back and shoulder hair. Guy was like a poodle he was so hairy.

That guy could probably lose 10 lbs just in body hair.

Today was a pretty nice day practiced tai chi forms and did them slowly (I didnt even get distracted this time) I think I might be improving!

Yeah. But so are guys who fight an oponant with 10kg on them

I know what you mean. But as a small guy, just about everybody I've ever fought was heavier than me, and just about everyone I've trained with, too.

But the whole weight cutting thing for a weigh-in isn't just unhealthy, it's just plain wrong.
