He took a fight on two days notice at 198. He was eating like a quesadilla or something on Embedded.

People really need to admit how wrong they were on that.

Revisionist history. He did weight 230 lbs off season and was said to walk around 220 lbs.

“I apologize,” Silva said. “I worked hard in training to go four or five rounds. I dropped from 230 pounds to 205 and then to 185. I worked my butt off. I had a long camp preparing for the fight. I owe you guys in the media, the fans and everyone an apology. I was prepared, but it’s unfortunate what happened.”

Ed Soares on GSP fight:

"I think Anderson is just too big for him.

I think that you can't make Anderson any smaller...I mean what are you going to do make a catchweight. But what is a catch weight 180...fine ...(On dropping to 170)...Anderson right now is walking around 225lbs...do you see how big he is...he is 225lb...to drop down to 170 is 55 lbs (laughs)."


He was also 206 lbs before fighting Irvin. His recent weight is not a good indicator. Now he's older, he's being tested for PED's and just had surgery.

Kinda reminds me of pro rasslin', in how they exaggerate people's weights.
 
Weight fluctuates depending on circumstances, I wouldn't be surprised if at some point he was 230lbs. But whatevs, enjoy your "haha you were wrong" thread if that's what you're into. Seems kinda dumb though...
 
I remember there was one thread that tried to make the case Anderson was the exact same size as Cro Cop since they were the same height... and there was this one guy with a million posts who would argue about Anderson's size in every thread... idiots

People also used to say GSP walked around at about 200lbs lol People are stupid. Is normal. Is normal.
 
Anderson use to get really fat between fights

Even when he fought Forrest he weighed in at 206 and had looked soft as hell for that fight.

When he fought leites he weighed in at 183, yet people would act like he cut a ton of weight
 
He is coming out of surgery, which is why his weight is so low.
 
People did not make the case for him being 230. Anderson said out of his own mouth numerous times that he was 230, and his manager said the exact same thing in a different interview.

I think this must have been a kg - lbs conversion issue. or language barrier.
 
Go on, tough guy, just call him a pussy already.

You are the stupid one, since you go around insulting people while knowing nothing.

I remember watching a vid recorded the day after a weigh-ins and St-Pierre walked on a scale and he was at 192. So, yeah, he was probably around 200 in his off season.
