Remember when idiots would say Anderson was a natural lhw who cuts from 235?

[Kelman]

Myself and many others on here always tried to explain to these idiots that the guy had a career at 168lbs before he moved up to middleweight, so he obviously was not a natural 205er.

At least now that he turned up at his walkaround weight having not trained and being flabby at 198.5, that particular strain of idiocy has finally bitten the dust.

The idea that any natural lhw would walk in off the street and weigh 198.5 is frankly ridiculous.

We were always right. Why do the idiots never listen??

lol @ anyone thinking Anderson was "natural"

lol @ anyone thinking Anderson was "natural"

Well... not much else to say is there.

 

[Raelag]

Anderson used to be bigger. For Griffin, Bonnar and Irvin fights he cut weight to make 205.

lol @ anyone thinking Anderson was "natural"

This, usually roids make you gain muscles, and more muscles mean more weight (duhh)

 

[MuyThaiTom]

That was just GSP fans who wanted to justify GSP ducking him.

 

[Sonny Qc]

He is 41yrs in a USADA era.

But yeah, never was the biggest 185er anyway

 

[GregorMcConor]

Those people were my first thought when they said Silva weighed in at 198. But wasn't it GSP himself who also said something to that extent back in the day too?

 

[Sonny Qc]

That was just GSP fans who wanted to justify GSP ducking him.

GSP also never was the biggest guy at 170.

The dude was chubby in those fights

He weighed in at 202 to fight Irvin.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Ed soares said in an interview he was 225 or so at one point. That is not people making things up.

 

[Wizzlebiz]

Holy fuckballs folks.


The guy is in his 40s and just had his galbladder removed. He couldnt train and lost muscle during that period. Its not very hard to understand at all.

Guaging his walk around weight right after a surgery 4 months ago is the stupidest thing ive heard in a long time.

 

[Corleone187]

he just got off surgery, lost a ton of weight, probably 20-30lbs

 

[UJustGotChaeld]

so he obviously was not a natural 205er.

Doesn't mean he was not an unnatural one. Steroids.

 

[UJustGotChaeld]

GSP also never was the biggest guy at 170.

GSP was the smallest WW for most of his career. His haters like to say how huge he was and when I source actual weights they act like children and just say nuh uh I know better.

 

[WhiteMousse]

TS is a cuck. The dude is in his 40s recovering from surgery.

IT using current biological factors to address past claims based on past info

 

[MilesAbove]

Dear TS, take Anderson at that size, but make him in-shape rather than carrying around fat due to the surgery and not in a full camp. 225lbs is not incredible or unbelievable. Remember they were talking walking-weight while in shape. Not mid-camp shape during a cut to 185lbs.

Anderson used to be bigger. For Griffin, Bonnar and Irvin fights he cut weight to make 205.

Remember the idiot ts that forgot this? Also I don't recall ever seeing the 235 figure
