Why is Sage fighting at WW and not LW?

[SalvadorAllende]

He did not have problems making 155 iirc and he would have a huge size advantage there over most of his opponents.

Why is he fighting 15lbs above then?

 

[ortizgnp]

Because he's a gangster, sir.

 

[The Invisible]

Because he's a natural WW.

 

[hot carl]

wont get rig of his hair gel.

 

[TheTimeIsNotNow]

Swole

 

[Neil'sMagny]

Because he's a gangster, sir.

Katy, TX has a rep.

 

[Sakurabinette]

Why is Sage fighting at WW and not LW?

Who knows.
Maybe USADA took away his diuretics.

 

[Kyler Ruxin]

Because he's fighting a guy that hasn't ever fought anyone before so he doesn't care.

 

[IMPmmath]

He just had his puberty growth spurt

 

[Weidman]

So he can stop Mickey hype.

 

[gogogoalex]

1,83 meters tall. Thats not a lw, thats the size of WW, or even MW.

 

[Magjee]

Cutting gets tougher as you age, maybe being a 170'er is better for him

 

[Roop Holstry]

Because biceps

 

[Lowercase p]

Gall called him out.

 

[jcow3]

he looks pretty shredded at 170. he said the cut was difficult for him also in an interview, i believe on the mmahour

 

[Squish II]

So that he can have bigger muscles for fight night of course!

 

[thobra]

He probably can't do it anymore. Happens to a lot of fighters as they grow older. Pvz cuts 15 lbs now. She used to not cut at all. Cyborg can't make 135 now. Some young guys will soon show up here and say how easy it is to just "cut" muscle.

 

[milenss]

Because Conor McGregor did it and it's cool.

Gall called him out.

Seriously though. I think this is the reason.

 

[The bad boy]

Who knows.
Maybe USADA took away his diuretics.

Angry? Sad? Tired?
Maybe mommy took away your vaginitis.

You don't just give up muscles like those if you don't have to. If you were as aesthetic as Sage, you'd understand.
