GSP such a nice guy he was legit devastated when he realised Hughes was pissed at his comments

he told a funny story on rogan’s podcast. Was driving through his old neighborhood and saw the guy who used to bully and beat him up as a kid. Had the urge to beat him up but the guy was homeless so george gave him money and asked how he ended up that way. Then later on the guy went to george’s dad’s house to thank him.

Ca athletic commission released fight night weights, Cody weighed the same amount as DJ

Only 6 fighters didn’t gain more than 10% of their body weight by fight night

And two of them fought each other. LOL

Henry Cejudo (124.5 to 141 = 12.8%) def. Demetrious Johnson (125 to 142 = 13.6%)
This one is so surprising to me. Henry looked so much larger than DJ, his back was massive. I think they commented on it during the fight.

So I guess Cody can make flyweight then huh

Damn... dudes a killa

It’s kind of cringeworthy and hard watching Greg Hardy vicious striking knowing that he probably attacked that woman with the same ferocity

khabib out in the streets mocking homeless people and recording it on his IG? SMH

Cruz says he's felt 100% for the past 3 weeks, looking to fight this year, as early as the Fall

Nice post, it was interesting to see all the fight night weights. santos jumped up to 209.5

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Hell yeah I want every commission to post fight night weights. It’s a good case study for the future of weight cutting and health in general

 

[Barbados Slim]

How much did Khabib give him?

Oh since the card was in LA that's why they posted the fight night weight?

read that they kept pulling the cash back and dangling it like a carrot. think khabib deleted it on his account

Yes sir, I believe only California does this for mma so far

It should be required to weigh in on fight night and for it to be published in every event

That's way better that they do that. Why don't all the other commissions do this as well?

 

[shogun]

commissions are hard to deal with and will only do stuff if they feel like it. I feel bad for fighters who have legit claims to get a loss on their record thrown out but athletic commissions will refuse because they don’t want to admit their ref made an error.

 

[getback]

Khabib a scumbag for that

Josie still thinking about a 155 fight

Dede has already speculated that for me. If there’s an opportunity, I want it. Not because of the weight cut, but to do a big fight. I think that’s what’s missing in my career, testing myself a little bit against other athletes from other divisions. It would be great. But I’m waiting for a definition in the division so we can make this decision in the future.
