The UFC faces numerous issues, from its ranking system to controversial judge decisions, but one ongoing problem that stands out is the weight cut. Many fights have been canceled because fighters failed to make weight, leading to frustration for fans and fighters alike. Bo Nickal has recently suggested adopting the approach used by Polish promotions to address the weight issue.
A video from In FAME, a Polish MMA promotion, is taking X by storm. The clip reveals their wild penalty for fighters who miss weight: not only do they have to face their opponent in the cage, but they also have to take on their opponent’s dad. This bizarre punishment is getting a lot of attention, drawing laughs and raising eyebrows across the MMA community.
Bo Nickal has called the In FAME promotion’s unique approach to weight-cutting a brilliant idea. Nickal praised this unconventional take, tagging the promotion and suggesting the UFC should adopt this method to tackle weight-cutting issues. His call-out adds fuel to the fire, sparking debates about how the UFC could rethink its approach to fighter accountability.

Dana White Calls Mark Zuckerberg To Fix UFC Rankings System
Dana White clearly expresses his frustration with the UFC rankings system, particularly with the media panel responsible for it. In an Instagram story after UFC 309, he doesn’t hold back. Tagging Mark Zuckerberg, he says, “I have to get rid of these CLOWNS.”
White has previously discussed using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to rank fighters more objectively, and now he seems to be turning to Zuckerberg for help. It’s clear that White wants to overhaul the current system and is looking for a fresh approach to avoid further chaos.
The resolution of issues, from weight cutting to rankings, will fascinate fans in the near future. If Dana White can successfully implement AI for rankings and find a solution to the weight-cutting problem, the UFC could run much more smoothly. While it’s tough to create a completely flawless system.
