Does DC have enough time to get as big as he used to be?

[superpunch]

Daniel Cormier was thick and scary looking [at HW when he was tossing around guys like Barnett:

He lost a lot of good size to make it to 205:

Is he going to try to get bigger again and just end up really, super fat? Is he just going to stay as small as he is at LHW?

What's he going to look like at HW?

 

[Arm Barbarian]

He has said he expects to be 235lbs for the Stipe fight, so he might not be quite as big.

 

[Sapp]

No, and he shouldn't try. He doesn't have the athleticism he used to have and he needs the speed advantage to compensate for his size. He should be around 235.

 

[mirror45]

It’s easy for him to get big on time if he eats his favourite junk food

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Hoping around 240... Heavyweight Power with that Light Heavyweight speed... Just cant wait to see them in the clinch. Will Stipe go for a ride...

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Did you really just ask if DC could put on weight?

 

[DetachedOrchid]

Nah but I think if he pulls it off it will be because of his boxing and handspeed. Tall task though to say the least. Both champs deserve all the respect win or lose.

 

[JerichoMelenko]

Popeyes and cake.

 

[TRUS8888]

What about going back to LHW after? Maybe i'm wrong to assume this will even happen.

Didn't he take a substantial amount of time originally transitioning from HW to LHW? Maybe if he's not going back to his original HW size it won't be so hard to go back down to LHW.

Or maybe his LHW days are over? hmmm

 

[Son of Werdum]

DC is having his training camp at Popeyes for this fight.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

No way DC has enough time to add the muscle he lost. Still DC should be between 235-240 in the fight.

I think Cormier will benefit from no weight cut to worry about, I believe we will see the best version of D.C in years and he will prove just how good he is, all respect to Miocic he is a great champion but I think D.C is just on a different level and this fight will show what weight class he is truly suited for.

 

[The Professional]

he'll probably be somewhere between 235-265

he aint having no problems putting weight on trust me

Yeah this. Even though he could get bigger he shouldn't try to.

 

[Judoka1532]

Can anybody find or post a side-by-side with dc at hw vs dc at lh?

 

[nanika]

 

[blaseblah]

He weighed 224 against Roy Nelson so unlikely. He's always been a small heavyweight.

He still has it
