Hot Take How do UFC fighters cut so much weight?

Gone so soon for the tenth time. We knew thee over multiple iterations, Eagle man.

Why wouldn't you count military? Their calories burned are due to their training? Most sports that include running will exceed MMA fighters on a calorie intake

Because military is not a sport and I specifically said sport. And I do not agree that most sports that include running exceeds MMA fighters considering they do as much, if not more running as football and baseball players do and then they also do cardio rolling etc.

Sherbros, how do they cut weight? Just starve themselves? What do they do? I’ve always wondered what the process is.

Their teammates essentially kidnap them and treat them as a hostage that is only kept alive to film a proof-of-life video.

How important must an extra 10-20lbs be for fighters to willingly put themselves through something that is tougher than the fight itself beforehand? I still think it should be illegal. It destroys your kidneys and brain, and can make matchups unfair. If weight cutting is legal, so should PEDs.

These guys are animals that’ll find any shortcut to get an advantage. Call it “sports entertainment,” and legalize everything, but “keep” the fights legitimate. They’re not trying to build the image of a “safe sport” anymore, so pay off the corrupt as shit commissions and go fullbore. Shit sucks now.

SO YOU WANT TO BE A FUCKING FIGHTER?!

TS is banned but, they're able to cut weight so easily because they're literally killing themselves. No food, no water, sitting in a sauna wearing trash bags and tack suits, I can't imagine how shitty some of these dudes feel by the time they get to the scale.
