Several rule changes are being implemented to the unified rules of MMA by the Association of Boxing one of which is 14 weight classes including two which make no sense at all. Which are a 215 pound weight division and a 225 pound weight division, which is not mandatory but suggested by the comission. When Dana White was asked about the rule changes he had this to say, "There's going to be a fight, and you know I don't roll over easily."
Other rule changes include no putting hands over the mouth to constrict their breathing an old Randy Couture trick. Now legal will be "12 to 6 O'clock elbows" from top to bottom.
Dana even voiced his opinion on why he felt the rules were being changed and by whom "It's John McCarthy. He doesn't want to be a referee anymore. Now he wants to change the rules. And he's announcing for Affliction."
