Are you semi-new to training?

Its possible the changes in your body, but not the scale, are a result in some recomp - fat loss and muscle gain.

If you aren't new to training, then its possible that you may be holding water and are going to experience a "whoosh" on the scale.

I agree with PlankIt - your activity level is fairly high and because of this, it probably wouldn't be wise to lower calories any more than BWx10

That being said, how long have you been dieting at BWx10? Have you had any higher calorie/carb days(ie refeeds?)?

Since you're fight isn't until mid Sept, you have 2.5 months to lose 10lbs which is very doable.
