McGregor has to cut 28lbs from now!!!!

[dmwalking]

This is not looking good for Conor. Damn. It would suck for him to lose only because he wasn't at his best.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

lmao!!!

 

[SherdogGoat]

It's almost as if he's in two places at once...

Genius

Lmao great post

if his first name was Calvin or Anthony I might be worried, while I'm not a fan of his antics he seems to be quite professional and I doubt he would take his weight cut lightly

In the event no one has noticed, it is like this everytime he fights. His weightcut is always absolutely ridiculous and I, for one, really, really hope he goes to LW. When one appears to be a meth addict from a concentration camp, it is time to change classes.

Me thinks the UFC wants him to take out Aldo and then move to 155. This is also why he's so pissed, fighting Mendes means he likely has to fight at 145 again. With the recent luck of the UFC, he will probably have a heart attack due to the weight cut and they will lose their cash cow forever

Easy shit, I do that every day.

 

[MMAfan4life2]

How much does he normally need to lose a week out from the fight?

 

[MMun]

i think he will make it. Usually when its brought up that the guy has a crazy weight cut looming days or weeks before the fight,he usually makes it.

A good example of selection bias. If a fighter is having a hard cut, he'll do his best to make sure that his opponent won't find out. If he is confident that he will be in fighting shape the day after the weighin, it doesn't matter.

I think he was exaggerating, but if he misses weight Dana's gonna go berserk

 

[Wayweary]

"He has a very busy schedule. He's training at Las Vegas. He was just in L.A. with Conan O'Brien last night. He's in New York for Reebok a day before that. He was in Connecticut the day before that. One, how does he do the weight? And two, how does he find the time? I don't know."

That was pure retardation. As if going to a studio for an hour is going to inhibit his cutting. He has a cook and a mansion in LA. I doubt it's an issue, really, to prepare some meals for his trips or have him come along.

I think Chael just really wants to raise his profile and will say or do just about anything to do so.

That's a big cut. Wonder how long til he moves up?

Max Holloway walks around between 170-175:

Hahahah. Poor guy...

McGregor has to cut 28lbs from now!!!!

First: it's 27.
Second: does he, really?

That was 7 days before the fight, maybe even 10.
That gives him time to diet down to mid/low 160's before dehydrating himself.

It will be a brutal cut as usual, but let's not act like he's going to drain 28lbs of water from his body for the weigh-in.

That's a big cut. Wonder how long til he moves up?

prob after the Mendes fight when he claims he lost due to extreme weight cutting.

 

[BOTTICELLI]

Tough cut for any weight class

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

Damn. Probably the biggest weight cutter in the ufc. I hope he can go up to 155 soon for his health.
