A fighter of let's say, 155-170 pounds. And what kind of macro's? Lots of carbs? Lots of fats? Ofcourse lots of protein.
I’ve wondered this as well. I’m 36, 6’1” 190lbs and my maintenance calories is 3250. I don’t train mma, or do much cardio. I do general lifting for 20-30 mins a day. I am moving most of the day for work and playing with my kids, etc. it would seem that a pro mma fighter training long hours many times a week would need 5000 or more calories a day
6-12 work outs a week? How do you manage it? What is your work out regimen if you don't mind me asking?I dont fight anymore. But i still train 6-12 times a week.
I eat between 4-5 k calories a day.
I weight around 74 kg

Depends on your metabolism and activity, guys like black beast or roy nelson are not going to be eating tons of calories even ifmthey train hard because the cut to 265.
Boxer manny pacquiao had to eat over 6 thousand calories a day just to maintain 145 pounds.
Depends on how active, how muscular, and intense the training is. More active you are, the more your maintenance ends up being. Also, if you're on the juice that changes things alot
I'm ammy, but train 6 days a week, 3 of those days being twice a day. My maintenance is 3500 calories
