Extreme cutting for a fight.

So right now i'm sitting at 190, 85kg (190) at around 6-8%bf last time I checked to make weight for my last fight. I was around 92-93kg when I left, just about 200lbs.

I'm a taller guy around 6'2 so there's a huge amateur fight and they want me to cut down to 80kg. I would probably have to be at 3-4% bf at my height losing 3-5% would probably get me close to 80 but I'm not so sure about losing that much weight. 80kg is like 177lbs. i havent weighed so light since I was like 18. Noted I would absolutely be shredded and really focus on building muscle, but muscle strength and conditioning.
Which is fine, I can come right off to a heavier cycle and build back up. But my goal is to get to 205-210lbs, probably 205 is more likely in 9 months staying just under 10% bf for basketball season.

Has anyone ever made such an extreme cut and have any advice and how to gain weight back quickly.
