Sometimes when you start a game with someone rated 1600 and your rating is 1500 sometimes the other person will when but his rating goes down for some reason and you lose more than you should. Or in tournaments somebody joins with a low rating and then his rating rises to 2000(Since he has only started playing on Chess.com) and he wins the tournament.

Is there any way to stop this from happening?

I think there is no way to stop it... it is unpredictable!

They could have a setting in tournaments "If winners rating over tournament max, no points given.
