A suggestion:

Since weight cutting is such a big factor come fight night what do you think about including the fight night weight stat as part of the tale of the tape?

Boxing includes a stat on what the fighters weighed in at the previous afternoon and then their weight on the day of the fight. Since weight cutting is an art that everyone tries to get an advantage with, it would be interesting to see what the weight difference is between the 2 fighters during the fight. How much do certain fighters balloon up to. Who puts on more weight, who puts on less.

What does everyone else think about this? Ive seen some other people mention this in the past too. Do you think it would be a stat you want to know come fight night.
