Click Debate: Will new weight rules in California affect UFC 214?
Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones will meet at UFC 214 in Anaheim.The main thing the majority of people were wondering when the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) passed a package of weight-cutting reform rules last Tuesday was pretty obvious.
How would these new regulations affect the next big UFC event in the state?
That card happens to be a significant one: UFC 214 on July 29 in Anaheim. The headliner is a UFC light heavyweight title fight between champion Daniel Cormier and former champ Jon Jones.
The stakes will be high for the commission leading into this summer. And all eyes will be on how it applies these new rules to the most high-profile UFC card of the year to date.
