Anthony Johnson cut from 210lbs to 170 lbs

The phrase "cut from" is so misused. To me it seems like "welterweight" Rumble started camp at 210, finished camp at 190, and then massively cut to 170 after already drained so that was pure water.

Now, lhw Rumble probably starts at 230, ends a bit above 220, then has a much healthier cut to 205
 
thats insane......Wonder if it was his choice, trainers, or promotion....
 
I specifically remember threads back in the day when rumble was WW where people said he would get up to 230 in between fights and provided pics with him next to heavyweights.
Someone posted pic of him and JDS i think at a resturant and Rumbles face was chubby as hell and body looked pretty dam close to JDS's size.
 
And here;s how irrelevant "walking weight" is:

Munoz "walking weight" of 252lbs:

That is not Mark Mu
 
He is a bit undersized at LHW compared to the bigger guys in the division, but he doesn't seem to be at a strength disadvantage to anyone yet, not even Arlovski and huge LHW Mike Kyle.

Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. AJ has a big frame and he fills it in really well. Please share with us all of the LHWs who dwarf him.
 
That must have been earlier in his career because for the Dan Hardy fight, he said he cut from 230. Also on the Inside MMA panel he was on, he looked bigger than Jones (NON-photoshopped).

He went into depression and started battling an eating obsession, NOT Munoz's walk around weight.

Terrible reference

Whoa, no need to take it so personal brah. I said "a bit undersized", which you turned into "dwarfed"

Anyway he's not a legit 6'2'', which you can see by how short he is next to Arlovski, who is the same height as Jones.

Here is him weighing in against Mike Kyle, who is a large LHW. He's not dwarfed by him but they could pass for a weight class apart.

Rampage cut from 250. hes gonna whoop them both

he never cut from 250, he said he weighed 250 during the A-team stuff. someone cant just cut 45 pounds of water and fight the next day. maybe you need to learn what a weight cut is first. losing weight after u sigh a fight isnt cutting weight. :eek:
