Is it just me or is anyone else constantly having fighters not make weight? I have just had three events in a row where the title couldn't be contended for because the fighters did not make weight......I even edited every fighters "weight cutting" stat to 100. Its becoming quiet annoying.

Are you using fighters who are much larger than the weight class dictates? A weight cutting value of 100 would mean they'd be able to cut large amounts of weight, the only way they could fail to make the limit is if you were asking them to cut truly massive amounts.

John Rivero ALWAYS misses weight for me. It's time for a weight class change.

I had a fighter miss weight for a title fight (which he got pounded in anyway)... lets just say he was moved up and given a rather tough opponent and lost... maybe he'll think twice about messing up my plans...

I give 'em two strikes. If they miss twice, under 5 lbs, they go up a weight class.
If they miss over 5 pounds, two strikes or not, they're going up immediately. So yea, John Rivero is a heavyweight at this point

oh, if it wasnt a title fight I wouldve been much less harsh on the guy.. but when its a tournament final for a championship.. then you can be damn sure im gonna come down like a ton of bricks on the guy..
EDIT:/ a strange one.. Wally Bryant failed to make weight and came in 2 lbs over... yet on fight day he weighed 265.. I think he just confused about what day the weigh-in was..

Heavyweights seem to do that alot, come in overweight (Lesnar came in at 279) and make the weight for the fight, could it be a bug?

Is it just me or does it seem like nobody misses weight anymore? When I first started playing it seemed like there was atleast one guy on each card missing weight and now I'm lucky if one guy a month misses weight.
Not complaining at all, just wondering if I was the only one who noticed this.

This one isn't a bug. Its the user created real world mod. Their fight weight, walking weight, and weight cutting ability are not balanced properly.

I think most fighters are supposed to make weight which is why its rare and why it seems to be the same fighters trying to squeeze down into the lower weight class. Osmosis Benn, Rivero, and Wally Bryant are three of the most common. Also keep in mind the standard mod/developer answer of "it depends on what fighters you are using not just the game as a whole" :)
In my personal experience of running 24 fights a month, maybe once every three months someone misses weight.

I dislike mods that make Forrest Griffin miss weight. Yes, he weighs 240 normally, but he's always in grape shape, and he has never missed weight, as far as I know. The guy should have a high weight-cut stat or a lower walking weight most of the time.
