fighters who miss weight seem to have an advantage of some sort. Out of the last 12 UFC fighters who came in overweight, eleven went on to win their respective bouts now.
The extra two pounds meant shit. Find another excuse.
Ever tried cutting two more pounds when your body will not give it up? Got to make 155.The extra two pounds meant shit. Find another excuse.
I don't think its the extra 2 pounds, but the effort and toll it takes to shed them. One fighter took that toll and one didn't. There is probably a very good reason that its so lopsided that its 11 W vs 1 L
That is such an impossible thing to quantify, and thus, irrelevant.
or maybe they were just better at fighting than their opponent?, im not sure but its just a suggestion, because last I checked they both rehydrate and eat after wards( gaining some of their original weight back) so its still pretty much fair gamefighters who miss weight seem to have an advantage of some sort.

Are you retarded? Just because you can't quantify something to exactitude doesn't make it irrelevant.That is such an impossible thing to quantify, and thus, irrelevant.
He was only one pound over. I agree that missing weight is bs but that one pound didn’t do anything. If lee was a former ww and missed by 5lbs that would be a huge difference in how he shows up the next day but the 1lb he was over didn’t play a huge part if any in this fight.

Not really. If 1 or two pounds does not make a difference, then title fights wouldnt require you to make weight on the dot. Obviously it makes a difference when you have to go through hell to cut those last two poundd but your opponent doesnt.
Missing weight is a big deal at the top of the division...who wants to risk that when the title is within reachMaybe it's just me, but it does seem like missing weight isn't as frowned on as much as it used to be.
Waiting for someone to miss weight more than once & Dana not to say anything about forcing them to move up in weight classes.

Look at the last 12 UFC fighters who missed weight surely not a coincidence almost all of the fighters won the fights......Common now if no edge why cut the weight at all?
