DC about to get all up in your ass

 

[ssc280]

The only thing that's gonna get smashed are your hopes, say Rashad...

We'll see

 

[Chules]

He's still 3 weeks out, he could easily lose 7lbs in that time and not even have to cut anything.

 

[KlNG]

Can't believe the amount of people who think Rashad will dominate,you guys are hilarious. I agree with the other dude that this will most likely be a boring decision.

 

[CONCRETE CHALLY]

Really? DC looked real at against HW's but this ain't HW it's LHW where is everything and moves a little faster depending on who you're facing. Why I see it DC needs to make a fit weight cut that won't leave him depleted or dehydrated then fight, not spar but fight!
I can't wait for Rashad to derail the hype train...

Far be it for me to question your MMA knowledge, but IMO you are as high as a Georgia Pine.

 

[the dutch guy]

Still a fat belly, he could easily make middleweight by the looks of it.
But anyway, good job staying away from McDonalds... Its not easy, I know.

So why don't the LHW guys just go up and dominate the HWs?

Cormier had issues with weight cutting in the past because he was an idiot about his weight management. Before the 2008 Olympics, Cormier would eat whatever he wanted and would openly brag about all the cheeseburgers he was eating, etc. The other team members gave him so much shit about how he was going to be 350lbs and not be able to move in a few years. Cormier then cut 20lbs the day before weigh-ins because he managed his weight poorly. He made weight but he was so severely dehydrated that it put him in the hospital with some kidney issues and thus didn't get to compete. Now he has managed his weight properly and he isn't going to have those same problems.

He should go to middleweight at this rate lol. On the rilly tho he looked small as fack at Henderson/Thompson

This. Roy Nelson should follow his example. :icon_chee

 

[fearoth]

War 185 lbs DC with abs.

 

[SnowBlynd]

He's gotta get to where he's only gotta cut 5 to 6 lbs for health reasons, but fuck he will be a huge weight disadvantage. Not that that has been a problem being small.

 

[Ceez]

There wasn't really any reason for concern if you actually listened to how Cormier planned to get the weight off.

He was concerned himself especially with this first weight cut to 205. He said it himself.

 

[boltport]

Daniel Cormier @dc_mma
@ufc 170 can't come fast enough. 3 weeks to the fight 212lbs.

if that's what he looks like at 212 dude should be a MW.

 

[Rhamnetin]

Tight, solid, thick. Next LHW champ.

He was concerned himself especially with this first weight cut to 205. He said it himself.

He was concerned more with how he would perform with the weight off. All along his plan was to get fat off to the point where he'd be walking around the 210-220 range. The reasons he had trouble cutting in amateur wrestling was because he didn't watch what he ate, and he cut weight like an idiot (by his own admission).

 

[oldschoolmmafan]

DC will be a force in the LHW division. Imagine hes not losing muscle mass so hes gona wrestle these guys like hes fighting children.

[Dragin'Don]

Looking good DC
Congrats

 

[warsteiner]

212 lbs and looks like +18% BF, and he used to fight HW's.
He truly reminds me of fedor.

 

[Col Kurtz]

still a fat belly, he could easily make middleweight by the looks of it.
But anyway, good job staying away from mcdonalds... Its not easy, i know.

[Hanoi Rox]
