Media UPDATED - Video: Dricus looking big and powerful in training ahead of UFC 319

Is this also the heaviest he has ever been for a fight at 185?

Yes, potentially. He is cutting weight, but somehow still looks that big with a complete set of abs and oblique muscles. It was just posted yesterday so I am assuming, it is a picture of him training in Chicago.

As far as a grappling match, lmao. That's irrelavent to his fighting weight in an MMA fight. Especially in the UFC.
Haha! This is too funny. These guys trying to argue that a WNO or BJJ stars superfight weigh in result is some proof of someone’s in cage weight. When in reality Gilbert had to grow a belly to make these great matches happen, where his opponents (Hulk and Rafa jr) are the size that they regularly compete at under 100kg.
Here he makes weight for the WNO match against Lovato with clothes on and pockets full.

He for sure doesn’t fear bigger men. Video available on flograppling.

But yeah Ratlip must be so tiny that I’m actually now concerned that the athletic commission might not allow him to fight at MW.

Why am I not surprised that you come in late, missing the point completely.

That was one of the 4 main arguments to prove that they were at a similar weight.

The troll you quoted even posted the evidence of Burns himself stating he was 180-182 at fight night as a LW.

For you and the guy you're supporting to be right, he would've had to only fight less than 3-5 pounds heavier as a WW and Burns would also have to lie about being 190ish (lean and mean).

And he would've had to crash diet down from 203 to 180 in 3 months from his grappling match to his Wonderboy fight, to then only cut/rehydrate 9 lbs, when he cut/rehydrated 25-27 lbs at LW.

You probably don’t know how grappling superfight weigh ins are done, but that’s ok.
Have a nice one 👍
