Be honest, do you expect Masvidal to make weight?

[quebert]

You know what would be sick? He doesn't make weight, smashes Snoozman but no belt since he didn't make weight. So he gets an instant rematch and smashes him a 2nd time around December.

I'd love to see that, it would maybe end Sherdog as we know it forever.

 

[Dana's Moonface]

He likely walks around at 190 with a full. Stomach

He will make weight

 

[MartiniSIDe]

The guy used to cut to 155, he'll make the weight

22 pounds isn't really all that much, I'd expect the first 10-15 to have been cut in the 1st day. I mean hes not that shredded when he weighs in for a WW fight so theres weight to lose on his frame

He'll lose most of the weight in the 24h before the weigh in, not the 1st day he cuts. If he was 192 last week, he might be down 185 now which would be a 15lbs cut.

Easy peasy for a pro like Masvidal.

 

[SandaKicker]

It depends if he's quoting his weight as 192 with full clothes on in the middle of the day and well nourished or if he means first thing in the morning with nothing on after passing water.

I think it will be tough either way.

 

[MCS]

Yep, he's got so many weight cuts behind him, and I don't recall him ever missing weight, even for LW. And he's a small WW. But 192 kinda also shows that he wasn't training to compete. It's on the lackadaisical side.

 

[RobinHoodMoneyBags]

I believe Masvidal exaggerated about cutting 20-22 lbs. He also exaggerated coming in 6 days notice.

I think he will make weight. BUTTT if he doesn’t... oh boy...I know who I’m betting on

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Y

 

[Maripucci]

He was 190 he basically had 6 days to lose 10% of his body weight. Sounds like a normal cut to me.

 

[randomg1t]

why do people keep saying he has 6 days to lose this with water, how long do you guys think fighters dehydrate themselves for?

it's dieting down, then cutting the last 2 days. nobody dehydrates themselves all week.

i expect him to make weight easily, he isn't a big welterweight at all. in fact, after the fight i expect people to bitch and moan about usman being so much bigger.

 

[0OneTwo3]

They're in the perfect place to cut weight. Probably some simple exercise is enough to make them sweat.

 

[machidafan99]

I expect some kind of towel gate at the very least

 

[Paynebringer]

After the crying and moaning about his money and being in the business for 16yrs, pay me my worth, I'm a professional, blah, blah, blah, and then not make weight..?

 

[Elvis.]

He’s never missed before

 

[machidafan99]

HE MADE IT GUYS

 

[Maripucci]

Jajaja obvio Bobbis

 

[El Fernas]

I hope so, worst thing that can happen is a non title fight with a champion...See Romero vs Whittaker, champion won tho, Figuereido vs Joe B, now we have no FLW champion, Romero (first time) missed vs Rockhold, it was an Interim belt, but still the same thing, a fighter missing weight on a title fight.

 

[Volador]

Just made weight. Usman looks so much bigger and more jacked, but I wonder how Mas will look rehydrated. He was in great shape for the Nate and Askren fights.

 

[hohner]

No way he makes weight imo

Big mistake booking this on short notice for the headliner. UFC is going to look foolish having a non-title fight headlining over two legit title fights.

 

[HockeyBjj]

20 pounds the final week for a welterweight is pretty standard

 

[elcj]

Where’d you get these numbers?

Masvidal. Lol.

Masvidal but moreso his fanboys, are intent on trying to make it look like Masvidal wasn't ready for this fight, when in actuality he was more prepared than Usman for this fight.
