I thought Derrick Lewis would weight in under 255 lbs

[Yrat]

With all these kind of Pictures of him running outside. He looked slim .

He was the same more or less.

So what happened? Was i fake news?

 

[StewDogg11]

Probably more to the fact he actually weighed around 285 or so and cut weight. His walking around weight very well may be 265 now especially since he didn’t need the extra pound allowance.

 

[NoSmilez]

He is lighter. I don't think the catalyst was some crazy training. I think he caught COVID and got really sick. He lost a bunch of weight and then he started his camp? I saw some interview where he stated he got down to 255.

 

[Thesnake101]

He's big boned.

 

[Mentallooser]

He was cutting a bit before. Now he probably just managed his weight normally to 265 through camp

People were talking like we were gonna see the return of early career in shape Lewis.

But it was just wolf tickets like in shape Mark
Hunt.

 

[Post 2 Decision]

He has to cut to 265

When you saw him in cage for a fight, he was over 270

 

[Karelinator]

Yes, you are fake news.

All the skinny Lewis hype is kind of quiet now he weighed in at 265...

 

[ThaiSexPills]

He’s a good 25-30 pounds less than usual so I don’t really see the point of this thread. He cuts 20 pounds to make 265 and he just hit 255

Doesn't matter, real men have curves

Skinny Lewis, Fat Lewis. He's still an underskilled HW who coasts on his outside ring social media persona and 'get out of jail free' right hand.

He weighed in at 265lbs.

This is him at about 245lbs.

True . he has lost a lot of weight, but I think the weight helped him a lot, because when guys took him down he was so strong that he just bench pressed them off and pushed them off and he just stands up without no sweeps/technique/positioning etc etc . Obviously helps the power in his punches too. I wonder if it will be much easier to take him down now and tap him. Lets see how he does, but I am not convinced the weight loss will benefit him. He is very bad on his back, he was just so heavy/strong that he could push them off and stand up without technique or sweeps.

Your username/AV always makes me smile, I love Bret Hart, the best wrestler ever.. I saw Bret wrestle live in a match that was 63 minutes, it was incredible. The amount of cardio and endurance and skill you need to do that is incredible. Big respect

 

[TJH Exitium]

He's huge guy

When doing strength and conditioning and losing a bit of fat, you're inevitably going to put on a bit of muscle.
Fat isn't very heavy, you can look very different without losing much weight because of the muscle you're gaining underneath it

Jeez they almost look like 2 different people

I was also wondering where is the "WW" Lewis? I'm pretty sure the photo was "adjusted"...

what was there weights then?

 

[cmw43]

what was there weights then?

About 245lbs for Lewis, and a claimed 250lbs for Hunt, but I think it was a bit photoshopped for a magazine shoot.

Lewis was getting tossed around a bit at that weight though.
