Not sure if folks have been talking about this, but...
1. short-notice announcement, six weeks out, not a full eight week minimum like most camps. less time to get his bodyfat down as low as possible.
2. been on holiday in Ireland, drinking draught beers, make you heavy, bloated, calorie-rich, a further handicap.
3. missed the (171lb) limit in two of his last four fights. he now has to make 170 on the dot. I don't think he's ever hit that mark in the UFC.
It's a literal certainty this guy is not making that weight. Will be a non-title fight.
I will bump this thread the morning he doesn't make it.
