    at this point, people starting training to compete profesionally for MMA as young teenagers is still more of the exception than the rule. 21 is a fine age to start.

    The heavy weights are a little unique. It used to be that the smaller heavy weights (220-240) were the better fighters. The guys that tipped the scales usually just had size on their side. Then...

    I agree with that to a point. When everyone is doing it, it's less about giving them an advantage as it is about being at a disadvantage if you don't do it. Of course, Some fighters are just better...

    how much time between weigh ins and fight? And how many rounds? The more time and the fewer rounds, the more you can afford to cut water to keep that size advantage. I'd suggest just doing what...
