Joaquin Buckley weighed in at 182lbs?! WTF

[hudsenknut]

If he’s only 182 for real he can easily cut to 170.... 12 pounds isn’t much of a water cut. Honestly he probably cuts around 10 pounds to make middleweight at most though maybe even less. Doesn’t look that big at all. However I do think that’s pretty bad ass and especially since he is only 5’10. The guy is a beast.

How is he cutting 10 pounds to make middleweight, when he is weighing in at 182?

 

[Final Say]

If you’ve got the power to be knocking guys out in the division you already have a speed advantage in, it’s not broken. Don’t fix it.

But eventually he’ll probably get taken down, I have to guess

Possibly I said at most. Beleive me I know from experience from cutting weight when you don’t have a lot of weight to cut sometimes you over cut.

I guess he meant that he is 192lbs on fight night, the first lbs are probably easier so it might be possible to go over with the cut if the required cut is 10lbs or less.

UFC needs to implement fight night weigh-ins, not only CSAC, i certainly doubt he fights at or under 185lbs like some suggest.

 

[broke as hell]

I respect fighters way more who do this, meanwhile Khabib I’m deathly afraid of ww and walk around at 200lbs,,,,missed weight several times, yet he claims he’s the p4p goat. Khabib is overrated and there will be guys like kamzat who surpass him. Even Conor mcg went from 145 to 155. Khabib never entertained ww, and why would he? It’s wrestler heavy, he’s not beating Usman or Colby.

This salty f*g always gotta say something about Khabib.

I don't see why he wouldn't cut to WW unless he worried about the wrestler heavy top of the division. I don't know much about his grappling ability and if he could compete with good grapplers or not.

I thought his plan was WW. Am I taking crazy pills or did he say that?

 

[Travis Alexander]

Suspect...just a matter of time

Every time I see you post in a thread it’s to say some hater shit. I suspect that you have likely been banned from here before so enjoy this account while you have it. Why even dim the guys shine.

I know Kevin Holland mentioned he could make 170 at the time he and Buckley fought....I’m not sure about Buckley’s aspirations for WW but he has fought at welterweight in the past (pre ufc). Granted that was years ago.

ok. I thought he said something but maybe that was it. If he’s weighing in at 182 and didn’t cut to get there, he certainly can but maybe he overshot his cut as well.

Youre wrong Buckley doesnt cut any weight. Hes come in under weight before and most his career fights are at ww.

 

[egk]

If he wants to just hang on and beat middle of the road guys than stay at MW but if he wants a shot at a title, he should probably move down. It's only 3 months since Holland one-punch KO'd him and I don't think Holland is ready for the top of the division yet either. Buckley's going to give up a lot of size against the top of the MW division.

Well he just made it clear he wants to fight WW Krause whos apparently been talking trash to him so maybe that’s his way of saying he wants to fight 170 next. I guess we will see. One thing is for sure 182 is low as fuck for MW and his last fight he weighed in at 183 so I don’t think he’s overshooting I think that’s just his weight. A cut from there to 170 would be easy for him.

that makes even more sense. I’d watch that fight with Krause just based on the bad blood.

I said possibly so I didn’t say for sure. I was basically guessing. So no I’m not wrong cause I never said I knew. Lmao
