This study aimed to evaluate the effect of rapid weight regain on the fight outcomes in professional mixed martial arts (MMA) athletes competing in Bellator.
Twenty fighters (16 male and four female fighters) were included in the analysis. Official weigh-in and fight-night weights were recorded, and percentage weight regain was calculated. Fighters were divided into groups based on their percentage weight regain (<10% vs. ≥10%). Descriptive statistics were calculated, and independent t-tests and logistic regression were employed.
The results indicated that while fighters significantly regained weight between weigh-ins and fight-night, this weight gain did not significantly (p ≥ 0.05) predict fight outcomes.
These findings suggest that weight regain may not provide a competitive advantage in Bellator MMA athletes.
本研究旨在评估快速体重反弹对参加Bellator赛事的职业综合格斗（MMA）运动员比赛结果的影响。
分析纳入了20名格斗选手（16名男性和4名女性选手）。记录官方称重时和比赛当晚的体重，并计算体重反弹百分比。根据体重反弹百分比（<10% 与≥10%）将选手分为几组。计算描述性统计数据，并采用独立t检验和逻辑回归分析。
结果表明，虽然选手在称重时和比赛当晚之间体重显著反弹，但这种体重增加并未显著（p≥0.05）预测比赛结果。
这些发现表明，体重反弹可能不会为Bellator MMA运动员提供竞争优势。
