Ship,
That is a pretty easy bet for the 226 pound guy. He can probably lose 15-20 pounds easily with just a 7-week crash diet and a little exercise. The rest he can just cut before weigh-in. Gotta carry a lot of water weight at 226.

Yeah, this bet is super easy. A few years back some people on my floor asked if I wanted to join their IM wrestling team, I joined and had to make weight of 198 within one week and I weighed like 220 at the time. I made a bet with my friend and won pretty easily with the use of laxitives and not eating/drinking the day before weigh in. I can only assume this would be super easy with 7 weeks.
On a side note, I made a huge ass of myself wrestling, as I'd never done it before in my life and was under the impression that I was signing up for the b'class. There was only an "A" class, and my lanky ass got took to the ground very very quickly against a guy who had wrestling shoes/helmet/uniform.
edit: I hold no misconception that I "lost" that much weight in that time, I'm just saying that it's very easy to make your body weigh that much less in a short amount of time.
