The problem with pre fight weigh ins is guys who currently walk around at 175 and cut down to 155 for the weigh in and hydrate back up to 165, they will simply try to fight at 155 without hydrating back up That is the reason they moved the weigh ins to the morning instead of 4pm. To allow more time for fighters to rehydrate.

IMO, the weight cutting missed weight issue got way worse when they moved the weigh ins to the morning as guys didnt have all day to cut the last few pounds. They did it to be safer.
