Recovery Cyborg Throwin Bombs,Grappling and Deadlifting While Recovering from Weight Cut

MonstaAJ said:
So, because her body isn't ready to go through another weight cut, she can't train? You know training, and cutting weight are two different things right?

Cutting only happens in the last few days before weigh ins, which would be 5 months after her last fight. Have another think about what you just said.

Was dehydration part of it? Sure, but a chunk of that reduction in weight was from dieting (eating nothing but fruit and little else) of which protein from lean mass is part of the metabolic mixture.

I am listening. Please explain the process that has her 165lbs on Monday of fight week, and 165lbs on fight night in the cage.

Agreed. Most if not all of everyone's favorite fighters are on something. Brazilians get shit on for it and the Americans are given a pass.

Jones and Lesnar have received just as much, if not more hate than Silva, Cyborg, or anyone else. The only American you can kinda make a case for is Chael, but his is a unique situation. As far as I know, he's the only one who's come completely clean and he's very funny about it, which eases a lot of tensions. Other than him, every other fighter usually gets his fair share of hate, no matter the nationality.

She dieted down from 170+ to low 150s then dehydrated the rest for her catch weight fights. She'd be dead dehydrating 20% of her body weight in fluids (175 x .80=140).

Wrong. She weighed 165 lbs on fight night against Leslie and 170 lbs against Lina.
 
What dose training hard fully hydrated has to do with here being able to cut weight? For all we know this may be Cyborgs first week of training like here old self after her last weight cut and shes stupid if she decided to cut weight just after a couple of days of feeling good. we should be happy to see here training in full capacity so she can come back healthy both physicaly and mentally.

She is stupid for gaining weight and then complaining about how tough her weight cut is. Cyborg's problems are entirely of her own creation.

coming of a traumatic weight cut and a low calorie diet its normal to gain some water weight and fat before the body gos back to normal. its not unfair to take time between fights when u cut that much IMO.

Point being Cyborg's walk around weight was 160 at the time she asked to be released from the UFC. Now it is 172-175. Possibly it is my math, but had she not gained 12-15 lbs. her cuts would not be so difficult.

The only thing worse than that is people making excuses for someone who is the cause of their own problems.

Please explain why no one even fighters that routinely struggle with weight cuts needs five months. Also explain why she feels the need to carry so much extra mass as to endanger her health in order to fight at 145. And finally maybe an answer for why her dome is growing at a Barry Bonds/ Sylvester Stallone like rate

Cranial helium supplementation?
 
She's had what, six fights in seven years?
So basically once a year, she has to fulfill requirements.
And can't do it.

No.
NO.

Are you being serious right now?

This is someone who
Has been caught cheating
Signed a contract with the stipulation she would make weight yet she never did and in fact put on more mass
Hasn't had a fight since September, so she's actually had much longer than 8 weeks to be in shape
Fights only in Brazil

Connect the dots dude, anyone defending her is naive

She got busted years ago, how long are you going to hang that over her head? I'm pretty sure there are at least 1-2 fighters you like that have gotten popped, that you give a pass to.

Unless you have some experience in the health care field and have access to her file and lab results, you really are in no position to state whether she can or cannot fight.
