Israel is a beast but he is too small for 185.

[Kingz]

Nah, he’s just pretty one dimensional

It’s like those horror movies where the family moves out of the haunted house but it doesn’t matter because it was never the house that was haunted, it was one of them.

He can move to any weight class and he’s still one dimensional.

The fights he has been given have been tailor made fights to showcase the one thing he does well. Yet, He dropped a round to the first can he fought and came close to losing last night

There’s plenty of “freestyle” guys they can keep having him fight but eventually he’s gotta best somebody to warrant the hype and reach the top...it’s just not gonna happen with this guy. Sorry

He is 6,3", with 80 inch reach. His frame is huge for the weight class.

magny is also 6'3 and 80 inch reach (well at least according to wiki) and he's a WW

 

[aus101]

Yeah, if he cut 15lbs, he'd probably be to weak for the 170 pounders. I used to think the same thing about Jon Jones at 205 pounds and he's done pretty well.

Jones weighs 220 ripped minimum in the cage though. He doesn’t give up much weight at all to the other LHW’s. He might be lanky but his broad shoulders give him a huge back, as strong as any LHW.

If Zabit at 6'2 can fight at 145 lb then Israel at 6'3" can fight at 155 lbs. Have we had a non manlet run through 135 lbs yet?

Roop tried and failed.

What does "generic caf guy" mean?

I think create a fighter.

Phew, thought it was a typo of 'cac' and TS was a coli racist for a moment there, that makes way more sense.

We've enough trouble with the stormfront crew sneaking in here.

Welterweight Neil Magny is also 6"3 with an 80 inch reach

 

[Phisher]

Roop tried and failed.

Will Chope (two inches taller than Zabit) failed at 145.

LOL @ sneaking. 70% of the shit that gets posted in the WR could easily be mistaken for Stormfront posts.

Lol I can't speak for anyone else but the dude weighed in at 184 and I doubt he's cutting much weight. Otherwise he would weigh in at 185-186 like everyone else in the division. No reason to lose extra weight, and if he IS? then the cuts obviously not hard for him. other MWs look way bigger than him and not just cuz he's lanky. He's small for the division it's not hard to see.

He’s definitely light for the division, I’m not arguing that. But if you think he rolled out of bed because he came in 2 lbs under max allowance you’re silly. Khabib weighed in at 154.5, he too, wakes up at that weight

 

[Grapplefest]

He looks to be around the same size as Magny who's not a huge WW. I think he could make WW with ease.

What does "generic caf guy" mean?

He was implying Marvin Vittori is a generic caf guy.

Regular caffeine and not a Mocha Breve-afficionado.

I'm a Latte Macchiato-guy myself.

lmao nah obviously dont think its his walk around weight but I dont think hes cutting a ton to get there. tough thing w/ a guy like that is he's skinny and cut af. where would he even lose the weight from to get to WW if he did? lol im sure he'll end up at WW at some point but for now Im just enjoying watching the guy fight. if he can learn to work off his back I think he can go pretty far.
