Bloody hell Farhad thats a big ask!

Your experienced enough to know this.

It depends firstly on initial size - a 70kg persom will stuggle to lose that in a year!

A 120kg person can do this in a few weeks.

I have never followed the thought process of "be as light as you can to make weight"
I prefer be the strongest you can at "your" weight. Then gradually adjust your weight to be lower or higher etc.

to get a 80kg/90kg person to lose this AND remain strong and fight ready - which is my assumption - is something i wouldnt do unless this fighter had a previous good record of big weight cuts.

generally a safe bet is 2Lb a week ie a kilo a week.

then you can sauna and sweat the moisture out of yourself for weigh in but if it is an on the day weigh in I would highly advise against!

This big weight cut plus dehydration can result in easy knockouts and more seriously brain damage, as is well known in boxing circles.

Train like a psycho yes but a safe psycho!
