No real details there though...I've been doing this for a long time.
 
He's 5'9".

Getting to 170 should never be a problem.

But he also eats like a pig in between camps.

So it is a problem.
 
Isn't this guy a High School, College and National Wrestling Champion ? More than almost anyone else on the roster,
he should be able to make weight; It should be second nature to him. The Answer is simple, It's called Money and Food; He has lots of both, and training & dieting are hard..
 
He should train with the Diaz brothers & eat the same meals as them.

He was also much younger and USADA weren't breathing down his neck.

Pre USADA he was a tank, he looked massive and almost always made weigh. Now he gets dwarfed and doesn't make weight.
 
One of the few threads where the content is as accurate as the title.
 
I think he tests free agency win or lose after this fight. We might get a Bellator Hendricks, which might actually be interesting.. I always wanted to see him vs. Rory.
 
He uses camp to get in shape. If you don't get out of shape between fights you won't kill your kidneys when trying to cut down.
 
That was one of the worst interview articles I've ever read. Tells us absolutely nothing we don't already know.
 
He always talks about how hard he works and how hard the cut is. No one is arguing that. Keep food out of your mouth when you're out of camp and you won't have to kill yourself. the guy has the frame for 170, that's tough to deny. The lack of discipline some of these fighters have when they're not training for a fight is astonishing.
 
Remember when he said he beat a heavyweight in a sushi eating competition and he ate over 200 pieces of sushi? Gluttony is a sin.
