Overview
- The rule takes effect on Dec. 20 at XTB KSW 113 in Łódź, Poland.
- Any fighter over the limit at the morning weigh-ins, including the extra hour, will begin round one with a one-point deduction.
- The deduction is applied in addition to existing financial penalties for missing weight.
- The move echoes a 2013 policy in Brazil’s Jungle Fight, which also used point deductions to deter weight misses.
- KSW 113 is scheduled to feature title bouts between Paweł Pawlak and Laïd Zerhouni and between Adrian Bartosinski and Muslim Tulshaev.
