Hi guys,

Many people say Khabib is a big weight cutter and walks around way above 180 lbs. But is this accurate and does he or his trainer ever speaks about this? Also who is the biggest cutter nowadays?
 
Just have him and GSP fight at 165 this shouldn’t be an issue. I want to watch this fight. Don’t you?
 
He walks around 180.

Which is average for a 155er.

Tony Ferguson walks around 200
There was an interview floating around where Khabib said he was 195 and he barely looked off camp.

He might... might walk around 180-190 now that he is retired. But no way cut from that much to 155. Think another thread had him cutting from 170-175 in his last few fights while taking the cut serious from when he had problems and went to the hospital... Also, Drew Dober cuts his alpha chin from 185 to fight at 155...

Walk around weight means nothing. The number that actually matters is the amount of water you cut. Cutting weight refers to cutting water weight only. Losing weight via simple dieting and exercise is not cutting weight. The damage to the body is caused by severe and rapid dehydration, not because someone decides to go on a hypocaloric diet to lose some fat over many weeks.

Exactly, Tony is the only LW who has confirmed tipped the scales at 200 lbs. With Khabib its just unsubstantiated rumuors. Yet people Sherbros pretend Khabib is a 200 pounder and never call Tony a weight bully, wonder why.
 
About 170 give or take, he isn’t a big lightweight. If he isn’t training then it depends, but then it isn’t relevant.

185 during camp. Around 200 regular walk around weight.
 
That's way off.
Nah not at all. He isn’t big at all. His body isn’t the best responder to weight cutting. He’s about the same size as McGregor, body weight wise, 170-175lbs nothing more.

Out of training he might weigh a few lbs more but then it isn’t relevant.

He's heavier than you think. No one has ever said he walks around 170. The reports have always been around 200 off camp from his team and around 180 during camp. Khabib has recently stated his weight is 180 in the cage. He would not be struggling making weight if he just walked around 170. His health issues cutting is because he's cutting a tremendous amount of weight.
 
180 - 185 lbs on fight night, not far off from GSP on fight night.

Walk around weight is irrelevant as it pertains to fight-shape weight cutting.

(2019) Khabib Nurmagomedov: 172.6 lbs
 
He's really more of a welterweight, but would get murked at that weight, since he couldn't outwrestle people anymore. I don't blame him. I think it's a major reason he's not going to fight GSP, because GSP fights at WW.

What active fighter in WW not named Usman or Khamzat has a legitimate chance at outwrestling Khabib? Colby maybe?
 
This is Khabib fighting at welterweight, small with zero muscle definition.



The opposite of GSP and Usman

Prolly.
Josh Thomson said in past he'd typically start a camp around 187 to 190, before he started working with nutritionist post tiramisu fall out.
