I'm confused, if Conor weighed 170 against Aldo fight night, how is he underweight right now?

[DaffodilMcWoozy]

you think he'll still be cutting ?

 

[wlu29]

He lied

 

[B-Man]

It was Sonnen that said he was 170 against Aldo I think, Conor has said Sonnen misunderstood him.

 

[b34stmode]

Hes lieing, we all know he walks around 170+ for a while now and thats why the FW cut was so hard on him, hes prepping up an excuse just in case he loses.

 

[jeremyemilio]

He lied

 

[marvelcomic]

he's underweight in pre fight excuses.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Does no one remember Conor saying he weighed 177 at the presser?

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

he is cutting, but he is lying. he is 177 right now, his coach said on twitter. he was probably over 180 a few weeks ago.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Does no one remember Conor saying he weighed 177 at the presser?

Yup, and his coach said the same thing too. 177

 

[AndrewGolota48]

He was one of the absolute smallest FWs in the division. Incredibly, he is taking this fight TWO weightclasses up against a guy whose natural weight class is WW, just like Rumble/Thatch/Lim. This is David vs Goliath all over again.

 

[Rackus]

I doubt he hydrates 25 pounds in a day and he did not look 170 on fight night but who knows...

 

[Zorrox]

When he was at FW I always been more inclined to believe he is closer to 165 when he's training hard and probably only hits the 170s when he's in recovery.


I would say realistically he's put on about 5-7 lbs of muscle. Which is still insane considering the time-frame and his training methods (not bodybuilder style).

can't believe this. 177 for his height , he would be built more like mendes

 

[Random Passerby]

His coach said multiple times that Conor is 165 come fight night, not 170.

Come on now son, we know there's not one bit of doubt in his mind of losing.

 

[sonhow]

Conor is already making excuses for losing the easiest fight of his ufc career. The one that he will win by KO or dominating dec.

 

[subhuman trash]

Fighters lie too, you know.

 

[Fahcough]

Lies, his ego gained 15 lbs after Aldo.

No. To look like Mendes he'd have to be closer to 190-200 pounds. 5'9 and 180 is pretty average.
