  I dont understand why a professional boxer cannot shed 2 pounds (0.9kg) in 2 hours. Simply get on the treadmill and run 5km (30 mins run) and dont drink water, if that is not enough, skip for 30 mins as well. The run alone will clear the 2 pounds. After you do the weigh in, then you can rehydrate.
  Or if they had checked the night before, then skip dinner that night and breakfast the following morning, do the weigh in, and then you can eat. Its really simple. I just dont understand!
