Die Waage war immer einen Tag vorher.
Now weigh-ins are to take place shortly before the athletes take to the mats for their first bout. But, even after the first match, the athletes will not be able to stray from their diets. The referees shall have the authority to request a second weight in at any time. In this case, the fighter has wiggle room of 2 kg (4.4 lbs). Should the athlete be heavier than that, they will be disqualified...
...Another reason for the change is to preserve the athletes’ physical integrity, by avoiding extreme and dangerous weight cuts.
Graciemag International ADCC changes rules, Garcia approves, Popovitch doesn’t (http://www.graciemag.com/en/2010/07/adcc-changes-rules-and-marcelo-garcia-approves/)
ich finds gut.
