DC weighed in at 206.2 the first time right? Then he came back & was 205...a 1.2 pound difference.

Rumble weighs in moments later at 203.8, and said the scale he was using said he was 205...a 1.2 pound difference.

Is it possible they adjusted the scale after DC weighed in the first time? He said he was backstage raising hell about their scale being off.
the scale has two wires going to it...one to a monitor and control and one for power

They adjusted the Tare on that scale

why would Rumble cut an ounce more than he had to...He is cutting from a solid 238lbs

Rumble weighed 230 for arlovski, so I don't know why he would add weight for light heavy, but thats not important right now.
If they fixed the scale for dc by 1.2 pounds, that means he was even heavier, and his cardio would have greatly suffered if he was forced to cut that much extra. Dc got a lot of help for this fight, if thats the case.

fight shape is different than in between camp shape...Rumble stated that he gets to 240 in between fights...looked good yesterday but said it was a tough cut
DC did get a lot of help.

240 is really getting up there. Hes going to have weight cutting problems soon again, if hes not careful.

Your completely wrong

Merely resting in your hand on the towel will take ounces and pounds off of the force exerted onto the scale

It is science

Enjoy though...FYI I am a DC fan so no bias here
not arguing, just won't believe it till I see it in action with someone actually explaining it. Just can't believe it. To me, the science makes it impossible for that to happen. I just went to the bathroom (not to shit, lol) and got the scale out, tried pushing,pulling at all different heights. The only time anything moved the scale was when I was lifting or physically resting on something solid. Not saying that proves anything, but the "science" some are using to explain it doesn't add up. You can't simply say it's moving a pound. It's not, it's moving all the weight isn't it? I mean you are moving his entire weight off the scale in order to make the scale read one pound lighter. Not just moving one pound off of the scale. His mass is not changing and the force of the mass does not get pushed up against gravity by that little towel. It just doesn't seem to make sense to me.
