An Abu Dhabi weight miracle happened again

[Joshuaace]

Unusual reaction by Mokaev. Is he trolling while naked behind the shame screen? Or is he legit surprised by the 126 announcement?

If your last name ends in V you gonna make weight in Abu Dhabi.

 

[mudrubble]

Tim Elliott is now considered an unimpeachable source of truth according to sherdog. Makes perfect sense.

I think it's the opposite. The UFC's word on weight, especially in UAE, is so IMPEACHABLE that even a shadow of a claim is enough to get fans thinking "yeah probably more of the same lying bs"

When your fans have so little faith in your ethics, doubt can rule the day I guess.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Safe to assume we'll always get a few threads about Sherdoggers bitching about the scale when the UFC has an event in Abu Dhabi?

the khabib one against gaethje was sus af

 

[Tweak896]

Funny how an expression that he's happy he made weight is proof Abu Dhabi is cheating. Especially on some nobody.

 

[FeelingFroggy]

Yes, of course it's a conspiracy. If the Tim Elliott fight didn't happen, there'd be riots in the streets. The PPV would be cancelled. ESPN might go bankrupt. All eyes are on the Tim Elliott fight.

To be fair, the UFC has earned every ounce of that skepticism.

Islam's scale goes all the way down, goes halfway up and is still moving aaaand the weigh in is over.
Let's quickly pull that bar to the right.

What about the other examples? How about watch some of the videos before you blindly make claims. You can see the scale in the video that is timestamped under it. Khabib didn't make weight for Justin and Khamzat held a towel to get his weight to jump up and down by 5 pounds

Everything isn’t a damn conspiracy. Opponents coaches have the option to observe the scale just in case of foul play.

You literally provided no proof corruption occurred.

Are you blind or just biased? Watch the scale

Bro, you just don't understand.
Khamzat is built different.

When he was over he cut down to 167 just to flex how easy it was. Then the doctor forced him to rehydrate.
It all happened really fast, I can understand the confusion.

Don't bother wasting your breath on these idiots that literally have no idea how a scale works.

You have to be a complete idiot to not see the bullshit at these weighins. It's sad that so many "Fans" can't park their fanboyism aside and be impartial about things.

The Khabib weighin is about as blatantly obvious as it gets.

 

[DapperDave]

Isn’t the US dollar backed on oil?

LMAO no!

The value of a sovereign currency is based on the economic output of the society and the probability that the society will be able to pay its debts.

In the past, the $USD value was based on the output and innovation of the most powerful economy in human history and the sound economic policies of the US Govt that leant credence to the phrase, "full faith and credit of the US Govt."

Today, USA has abandoned manufacturing to become a service economy and the national debt is 130% of the GDP.
No future on that road.

On his first attempt, Chimaev stripped down naked and weighed in at 171.5 pounds for his welterweight bout with Li Jingliang, only a half pound over the limit, but something was off – his hands could be seen touching the towel. Nobody asked him to raise them, though, and so 171.5 it was. Chimaev was given an hour to cut the addition half pound.

About 45 minutes later, Chimaev returned and again stripped down. When he stepped on the scale this time, it was obvious he was trying to pull a fast one by leaning on the towel. His weight on the second try: 166! How could that possibly be?"

what about the other examples?

They offer no proof, just conspiracy theories weaved together on scant evidence.

I'm only talking about Mokaev. Khabib probably got the cheat because he's like Conor of the middle east.

Again everything isn’t a conspiracy. The Khabib weight story has already been debunked.
They weighed the fighters in the back. Khabib wasn’t the only fighter that had a “fast reading.” Every fighter did.

Explain the scale then at the Khabib weigh in? Digital scales can be tared wrong

He's just a super athlete.

He can cut 5 pounds or put 5 pounds back on in mere seconds.
