RE: Ben Askren on bjj schools doing it wrong
It's just insane that it is still happening in 2018, massive reform is still needed, weight cutting is most dangerous part of MMA in my opinion.

Agreed! If people put the same effort into being a little more disciplined year round they wouldn't have to resort to stupid methods of trying to get into a smaller weight classes.
Yeah it's a simple fix really, the only problem is they suddenly have loads of money at that level, most of them are broke pre-UFC/Bellator, so when the money comes I imagine it's sooooo hard to stay disciplined.
Aye that's so true and often overlooked! Back in the day I used to pay to compete in tournaments and that's still normal on many amateur circuits.
With a wad of cash it's gotta tempt people to eat the wrong stuff, drink too much etc
yeah exactly, they're only human haha.
