Damage In The Ring Ep. 3: What People Don’t Talk About When Cutting Or Gaining Weight For A Fight

from Damage In The Ring · host Leighton Renfroe

What does it really take to make weight for a fight? In Episode 3 of Damage in the Ring, I break down the realities of cutting and gaining weight in boxing and discuss the challenges that most fans never see. From strict diets and tough training sessions to the mental discipline required to stay on track, making weight is often one of the hardest parts of preparing for a fight. I also talk about why gaining weight can be just as challenging as losing it, the risks of poor weight management, and the lessons fighters learn through the process. Whether you’re a boxer, an athlete, or simply a fan of the sport, this episode gives you a behind-the-scenes look at one of boxing’s most demanding challenges. Damage in the Ring — where we go beyond the punches and break down what really happens behind fight night.
