Compilation of Fighters' Cage Weight

[Portland8242]

And Cro Cop fought at heavyweight when his weight was 220-225

During his prime he was lighter than a lot of his opponents. He's also been on record saying he doesn't much care for the lower weight classes and he firmly believes heavyweight will always be the most prestigious division in MMA.

 

[Portland8242]

I can't believe that Michael Chiesa hydrated back up to 188.5 on fight night for his debut at 170. This guy used to cut to 155?! That's so insane. I thought Usman was a masssive WW but apparantly he only rehydrates back up to 185? I honestly thought he'd have been around the same size as Woodley (who's 190).

 

[Grapplefest]

What kinda bullshit is this. So since Khabib weighed 166 pounds during his weight cut 5 days prior to the fight, it means he weighed that much in the cage? For some reason I doubt he only weighs 13 more pounds than John Dodson on fight night.

Added TJ Dillashaw's weight for his Flyweight bout (149 lbs).

At least tag me so I know to respond, I only just noticed your post because I was adding Dillashaw's weight for the Cejudo fight <Lmaoo>.

Conor McGregor was 171 lbs for UFC 229 (confirmed by his nutritionist) and you can see that McGregor is carrying a little more weight than Khabib, which makes Khabib's claim of 166 lbs easy to believe given that McGregor's cage weight is known:

Just because Khabib has had weight cutting issues in the past, doesn't necessarily mean that he's a big guy for his weight class; in his case it was just not being disciplined with his diet.

 

[Nosferatu.]

According to his latest instagram post, for his last fight, Johnny Walker cut 6,6 kilos (14 pounds) to make the 205 pounds limit.

it seems feasible

he was previously hospitalized for trying to cut too much weight

would not make sense for him to go through that again for the biggest money fight in his career

[TriangleMonkey]

Davis fought BW and got back up to 160 LoL geeez dude, Zabit make you cut your limbs off and jump a weight class

Any UFC level fighter that puts on less than 10lbs after weigh ins and competes is a straight boss and there skills should be extra recognized.

Cut no weight at Welterweight and once fought Lyoto Machida at Openweight:

Routinely gave up 45+ lbs and a vast amount of reach at Heavyweight:

 

[Post 2 Decision]

Added Anthony Smith (210 lbs).

Move Thiago up to LHW? Not that it matters really

Move Thiago up to LHW? Not that it matters really

It does matter; just because that's what his weight was at Middleweight doesn't mean that's what his weight is at Light Heavyweight (See Amanda Nunes).

Your Poirier weight must be off— your source Is 4 years old. this one is a bit less than two years old and he says he's 178 there, and he's only gotten bigger since then

My sources constantly need updated, because fighters' weight are constantly changing.

As for your source of 178 lbs: that was only three weeks after he signed to fight Pettis, and over two months out from the fight itself, so it could very well be his walk around weight for all I know.

He said himself that his walk around weight is 185lbs.

"Poirier normally tips the scale at 185 pounds at the start of camp."

He's clearly fit and ready at 178lbs there. In cage weight is still a different thing, though. I wish all the athletic comissions released cage weight like how the CSAC does.

Added Max Holloway (178 lbs) @ Featherweight.

That's the highest weight cut (%-wise) that I've recorded thus far with a 18.53% cut.

 

[acannxr]

Added Paul Felder (180 lbs) @ Lightweight.
