oving up or down a weight class can present a fighter with both an added advantage in the combative realm as well as an opportunity to contest for several or more honors.
If a fighter is having trouble cutting weight, then the best option should be to move up a division, and if said fighter isn’t best suited to his assemblage; i.e., to small, then a drop in weight class could make all the difference.
The aforementioned also applies to fighters who feel they could compete in other weight categories other than their own.
