Now you've got your same 180 or maybe 175 pound dude if this is the rule trying to hit 160 on the day of the fight. I would forsee more dead men walking in the right come fight time as a result and perhaps more blow induced injuries and damage as a result.

Maybe initially you may see dead men walking with same day weigh ins. But after some early examples are made of fools who dehydrate too much (similar to DLH with Pac) and we see some eye opening results of fighters who tried to lose too much weight.
Surely there will be a shift across the board where all fighters are at a more natural weight division.
They aren't going to continue making same dehydrating mistakes after some early examples are made of the ones who try.
