Tito: Cyborg can't make 135

[The G.O.A.T.]

the champ doesn't come to you

Unless you have a belt too. What's so hard to understand here?

 

[ABC]

Dana seems to think that Cyborg really doesn't want to fight in the UFC.
I guess we will just have to wait and see if he is right.

Cyborg was stripped of her belt when she was caught cheating

 

[Strudel]

No offense, Tito... but I think Mike Dolce's opinion on cutting weight ranks here. If Dolce is working with her and thinks she can do it, well I've seen him work wonders before.

Dolce Diet is Broscience at its finest. Personally Im looking waiting for someone to seriously hurt themselves cutting weight so this joke of a practice can stop once and for all.

Same day weigh ins. Period. If fighters want to cut weight the day of the fight for a size advantage: Go Right Ahead. But there is no recovery day and size doesnt mean a thing if your body is sapped.

 

[vgmark]

That is just stupid. Have you ever seen Cyborg weigh in a 145?

Let me know where that 10 pounds is coming off.

Obviously she needs to shave her head

 

[Based God]

fact is Cyborg started her career and 135, she had the body of a normal person and was destroyed in about a minute in her debut

after her 5th small time brazil fight she disappeared for 2 and a half years and came back a roided out monster


Cyborg doesn't want to give up the roids, which she knows for a fact is the reason she's so much stronger than all these other women. Now she has the biggest excuse maker in MMA history as her mouth piece which makes her bullshit even worse.

Cyborg without as much muscle mass makes 135, but that would actually require her to not be a roider.

Wait...

Who is 'Tito' and why do we care about his opinion?

 

[Kirk601]

You can dislike her all you want, I think you have to approve of her choosing to do the healthy responsible thing. 135 is way too small for her, I'm tired of seeing fighters risking their health because they are having trouble in their natural weight class and want to fight smaller guys.

Healthy, responsible thing? We are talking about the woman who was shooting up right?

 

[Saskatoonmike**]

Ronda should not fight Cyborg at CW or 145. If Cyborg wins then what? There is no UFC division for her to defend in so is everyone obligated to move up?

No Cyborg can stay off the juice and lose a little lean muscle mass and the cut to 135 will be easy enough.

Finally some sense. Cyborg's natural (non roided) weight class is 135.

Dana keeps saying "She doesn't wanna fight Ronda" No Dana Ronda won't fight her at 145, she has made that clear more than once..

Exactly. Ronda talking all the trash and she won't fight 10 lbs up makes her look like a fool. You want to fight her so bad, fight her @ 145.

He's somebody who has risked his life fighting with a broken skull to entertain fans.
Show some respect.

the champ doesn't come to you

this

anyone who acts like Ronda is somehow obligated to MOVE UP and fight Cyborg just because she's the other biggest name in WMMA is retarded

You wouldn't ever expect that from a man. You wouldn't expect Aldo to go fight Benson Henderson just because there's not many stars at featherweight..

That's just not how it works.

Get rid of all this talk about 'divisions' and shit.

Theres 1 fucking person, Ronda Rousey @135
And theres 1 challenger, Cyborg @ 145

1-off fight at 140.
Quit the bitching. Get rid of the fake title. Get rid of the fake division.

Shut up. You don't like to have like it, but you need to accept the facts. Women's MMA is not one big divisionless thing. It has divisions just like the men's.

Ronda fights at 135. She's fought at 135 since the beginning of her pro career. Just because the other most famous woman happens to be 145 doesn't mean Ronda is obligated to move up and fight her.

No one demands that Jones moves up and fight Cain. If you want that ligher title, you have to move down

 

[ABC]

Exactly. Ronda talking all the trash and she won't fight 10 lbs up makes her look like a fool. You want to fight her so bad, fight her @ 145.

Why don't fans understand that it isn't her option to choose the weight class.

That is just stupid. Have you ever seen Cyborg weigh in a 145?

Funny thing about roid bulking is that when you stop using a lot of that muscle comes off. All she has to do is clean up and have a normal camp/weight cut and voila - 135. She probably has significantly less muscle mass than Ronda once you remove all the roids.

While I think Dolce is a genius for making it much safer for fighters to cut weight, I really do hate the whole idea of weight cutting. I'd love to see day of weight ins. There are weight limits and divisions for a reason.

I definitely hear what you're saying, but you play by the rules in place. And for guys/women who want to have a size advantage and don't mind draining their body to do so, they will have that advantage.

Personally, I think there's something to be said for fighting at your own weight. Do you think a guy like Edgar would be anywhere near as durable if he went through a ridiculous weight cut?

You understand the whole "champion of a division thing" right?

 

[Natman2939]

Wait...

Who is 'Tito' and why do we care about his opinion?

One of the greatest LHW Champions of all time and the biggest UFC star by far of the pre TUF dark ages

Have some respect

for fucks sakes he hasn't even been retired for a full year and people are already saying stuff like this?
