i don't want to post just part of the article because any part will make it seem like click bait.

So read the whole thing.

Please no more dropping down Aoki. 155 is your weight class.

 

[Mikedh]

Dunno if Shinya makes it but its by far the most interesting fight either could do right now.

 

[Lucifer Alpha]

Yea that's not gonna happen.

Please no more dropping down Aoki. 155 is your weight class.

I agree. Aoki looked like a toothpick at 145. 155 is definitely his home. 140 just seems ridiculous.

 

[emperor]

Bad form. If you're going to call someone out at a higher weight class, don't preface it with a stipulation that it will only be on your terms. Otherwise, it's like inviting yourself to a party that no one asked you to come to.

"I wouldn’t fight him at 145 pounds. At 140, I would take it right away."

C'mon Bibiano.

 

[Bluesbreaker]

I'd definitely pick Bibi against a dead Aoki.

 

[PIT FIGHTER]

A_OK_I has far too big feet to cut to 140.

 

[Asurah]

Looks like another fighter doesn't understand how superfights are supposed to work. Aoki already says 145 is too much of a drain for him, no way he goes to 140

 

[Slongkong]

just do the warren rematch

 

[VIP1349]

Aoki responded by calling out Askren but only at 160.
