Media Jon Jones speaks with Daniel Cormier on the weigh in show

i don't know, playing around with your weight is never a good idea. Stipe, Roy Jones, and Max Holloway all found that out.

What exactly are you talking about? Stipe has ranged from 236 lbs in his first UFC was then consistently 240 + maxing out at 246 lbs. He beat DC twice dropping down to 230.5 lbs and 233 lbs after his loss to DC weighing 242.5 lbs.

He has 4 losses. 239 lbs against Struve, 243 lbs against JDS, 242.5 lbs against DC. Seems like the only time he purposely dropped weight outside his typical range he won back his title.

There was 1 TD attempt by Stipe. Pretty sure Ngannou got a lot better rather then Stipe's weight being the main deciding factor. Frank got his best TD with his fist.

Also Stipe didn't drop that weight for his 2nd fight with Francis. He had dropped in the low 230's for two years before the fight.

yeah, i know he didn't drop weight for the Ngannou fight. it was for the DC fight. Ngannou got better sure, but Stipe also looked like shit and weak as piss.
