Media Arman is ready

[Arm Barbarian]

Lots of noise and flexing, only to shit the bed when it counted.

Dude is becoming evermore unlikeable.

He's a beefy lightweight. I bet he's damn near 200 outside of camp.

Ready to sit back and watch tomorrow's card lol.

If his back is bad enough to pull out of the fight then he almost certainly shouldn't be sitting.

Personally, I think the back injury is a lie and that he botched a weight cut.

I absolutely agree that he probably botched a weight cut, but injuring yourself doing thoroughly mundane things is one of the things that can easily happen during a rough weight cut, and his alleged injury was supposedly examined by UFC personnel (I believe this because he didn't pull out until after Moicano and Dariush both already made 155, making it likely they were told that they might be replacements and that the UFC therefore knew about the potential pull-out in time to let them make 155 easily). My guess is the injury is real enough. If it were just a bad cut then Arman's camp might try to cover it up but the UFC wouldn't have a particularly good reason to help a cover-up.

Good points, hopefully we can see exactly what this injury is in the future.

I bet if he put Francety in a triangle like Merab did, his back would be better than ever
