News NSAC just announced Claudia Gadelha vs. Alexa Grasso is OFF

[Doughie99]

It's already on the main card right? They'd have to move Maycee and Roxy up.

Yeah I think Maycee Barber fight would be the perfect one to move up. She is clearly a fighter UFC are trying to push and promote, it's "lose one WMMA fight, so replace with another", it would keep ESPN happy, I think that's likely what is gonna happen.

 

[j18lee]

Now what am I gonna jerk off to tomorrow night? Sabina Mazo?

It's not pretty, but I think you'll have to make do with Holly Holm's ass and Maycee Barber's... eyes?

 

[j18lee]

She looked pretty fit and cut (for a female fighter at that weight class) - see abs below. Did she put on too much muscle? Delts and biceps look pretty big, again,for a woman at 125.

Would be hard to get six pounds off that... Maybe she'll have to move up.

 

[PokerMage]

Well that sucks totally unprofessional of Grasso.

was looking forward to that fight too.

Hope Gadelha gets paid her show money at least.

 

[Sarge3000]

I'm no pro fighter so I have no idea...But I really have no idea how as a pro fighter, you know you have to make weight X, and you show up a whopping 5lbs heavier than normal? I mean don't they weight themselves before in the hotel room and the entire week, as they go through the cutting? I can only assume that this happens when there is a lack of professionalism in the team assisting the fighter since cutting weight is a science and predictable.

 

[Muppettoker]

A poor card getting worse. And they expect uk fans to stay up till 5 am and pay extra. Fuck right off

 

[dc007]

Wouldn't surprise me to see the Maycee Barber fight to now be moved up to the Main Card. Keeps ESPN and Dana more or less happy i'd imagine.

She should be on there anyway. She's moving up and Holm is moving towards retirement.

There’s a “trick” that has to do with water manipulation that doesn’t always go right.

One less WMMA bout on the card = card getting worse?

Please stop smoking crack.

Well they dehydrate themselves as much as possible.
Problem is when there is really too much dehydration, organs shut down and there is risk of death.

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Dont stop there, i see several more wmma bouts on the card

 

[ArtOfDrowning]

Missing 5.5 lbs and you are that small? Fuck that shit.

But hey, this card just became more watchable.

 

[campbecc]

maybe when they miss by a little but 5.5 lbs at 115 is hard to reasonably excuse.

 

[magicmarker]

WMMA maintains the epitome of professionalism as usual

 

[MeatWagon06]

And all she was saying on the UFC Embedded was how grateful she was of the UFC giving her the opportunity.

 

[rpn453]

Now if we can just get Holm-Pennington cancelled it might be worth showing up to the bar before the main event starts.

 

[khabib time]

One less WMMA bout....

Thank you JBG.

Claudia can go back to do what she's been doing best lately.

 

[Askafan]

I blame the WalMart guy

 

[Dorkman]

Hope there was some sort of underlying injury that affected getting down, otherwise thats hyper unprofessional to come in that much over the limit at that low of a weight.
