When was the last we had a fight with Zero weight cutting?

[Legendary]

NOT REFERRING TO HEAVYWEIGHTS.


Conor vs Diaz will be the first time in a very long time where both fighters will basically just fight at their walking weight. I think we will see a better physical version of themselves. When was the last time other then fights on TUF, that both fighters actually did not cut weight? Stann vs Wanderlei? This just proves weight cutting is bullshit.

Last week brah Dada 5000 vs Kimbo

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

Lots of HW fights.

 

[johncola]

Outside of HW, it hasn't happened much.

There has been fights with minimal weight cutting though, e.g. Cowboy/Cowboy, Cowboy/Noons, Noons/Stout, Benson/Mavidal, Northcutt/Barberena. They were all regular LW fighters fighting at WW. I think they still all cut weight though.

Then again, both Conor and Nate will be cutting weight for this fight. Nate will probably be cutting 5-15 pounds and Conor will be cutting 5-10 pounds.

Not including heavyweights, unless they cut weight.. Should have said outside of Heavyweight. Dada cut 45 pounds.

No.

 

[IMSAYIN]

I heard Conor was 178 or something a day, or two ago. If that's right, he's cutting.

Lots of HW fights.

And almost zero of those times did they have better cardio than lighter guys who ate clean and cut some weight lol

Yeh if you plotted cardio vs weight class on a graph you should notice a curve there. That wasn't the question.

Nah Dada had to cut 40 lbs from 300 to make HW. That's why he almost dieded.

It's quite common for HWs to not cut any weight.

He is not 178. If he is then he is just eating a shit ton. First Conor cut from 168, then 170 then 173 then 175 and now 178.

Good Cross example would be Benson. Both guys are 5'9 and Ben is a known 175ish and is also way bigger.

If Conor ever fights at 185, then everyone will say he cuts from 200. Everything about the guy is exaggerated.

Carrying around 230lbs+ of muscle will be detrimental for you cardio, who knew...

Vitor vs Hendo 2?

You mean 3? Because TRT Vitor cut a huge amount of weight. Good example though.

 

[ARONAbeetFEDOR]

Vitor vs Hendo 2?

That was TRT Vitor. He had to be at least 215-220.

 

[mikenason]

Frankie Edgar at 155.
