That won't protect the fighters and most won't stop cutting. Fighters will get really hurt then. It is an option, but it would be terrible for the sport when someone dies in the cage because they cut too much and got punched in the head. Even though it would be their own fault.

Moving the weigh-in out further helps the fighters get hydrated, they now just need to force them to stop cutting.
