So fighters have like 40 hours to re-hydrate for this event?

[Fiestar]

Half a day more than usual.

That's a big advantage to big weight cutters like Gus (206). I was gonna bet on Rumble (204) but I'm not so sure anymore. Gus by bigger weight cut and exceptional re-hydration.

 

[Degen Gambler]

Fully rehdrated Gus is GOAT.

 

[Mikedh]

They weighed in there at 6pm and the event tomorrow starts at 11 or 10 pm I think

 

[mmafan559]

i don't think gus has the muscle mass to cut a lot of weight

 

[Zanmato]

the weigh ins started approx 4pm GMT and the fights are on from 10 pm GMT tomorrow.... they'll get an extra couple of hours if anything at all

 

[Rational Poster]

Yeah I don't think Gus cuts much anyway..

Rumble on the other hand...

 

[D1wrestla]

Lol at 40 hours. It's going to be around 30 which is not that much out of the ordinary. TS needs to learn how to math

lol @ Saying "Big Weight Cutters" and thinking it's Rumble that's at a disadvantage just because he's 2lbs lighter

 

[CerebralKnievel]

Math isn't TS' strong point, and that's a generous understatement.

It's about 30 hours.

If someone were ever inclined to run a graph on victories/losses correlating to scale weights over a +/- 1 lb. differential, I'd be willing to bet the greatest success comes for those who come in at 1 pound under. Obviously fighters 5+ pounds over generally tend to be on the losing end, statistically.

Not that I feel either fighter's weight cut is going to be a primary determining factor in this fight.

when you see Gus and Aj shirtless in the octogon all hydrated i bet you're going to change your tone when you realize what a muscle bound gorilla AJ is.....i await the threads patiently

When the event takes place in Ireland they're gonna have a whole week to rehydrate.

Fucking awesome.

 

[BigMuffler]

Is this a more subtle version of my Rumble thread from yesterday... um I mean, indeed Rumble is an undersized LHW.
