When a contestant fails to make the weight, the Commission may cancel the permit for the contest, move to fine or suspend the contestant, or take other appropriate action.
A champion who fails to make the weight for a title match shall lose the title on the scales. If in the ensuing contest the champion who fails to make the weight loses to the challenger who has made the weight, the challenger becomes champion. If the overweight champion wins the contest, the title becomes vacant.
A champion in a lower weight class may compete for the title in the weight class above the champion without losing the lower weight class title.
