MOST weight cut in UFC history?

[Ampz]

After seeing Cyborg cut around 35 pounds to make 140... I have the question, what is the MOST weight cut in UFC history?

Prezares (sp?) cut an obscene amount of weight for his fight tonight, and still missed weight.

Rumble used to cut from 220 lbs to 170 lbs.

That's 50 lbs, or ~22% of his body weight.

Gleison Tibau is the actual answer.

I would say Rumble, but then I remember Hunt vs Lesnar. No way Lesnar weighs under 350 lbs at fightnight. Hunt at 280 looks like he fights 3 weightclasses below.

Prezares (sp?) cut an obscene amount of weight for his fight tonight, and still missed weight.

in the interviews between the fights, the combate channel from Brazil asked Prazeres and Wilson dos Reis about this, and Prazeres said he walks around with 200 pounds, so he cuts 45 pounds to make 155, and Wilson Reis walks around with 165, so he cuts to 125, that´s 40 pounds at the lowest class.

I read somewhere that early in his career Rumble used to remove 1 or 2 of his organs to make weight.

Glieson cuts a lot as per Rogan

Did Miesha dump that douchebag yet? That would be a substantial weight cut.

Yeah but he was just really fat between fights.
