Is anyone really that surprised over this?

The only surprising thing is he has like what, 20 fights in the UFC or something close to that(I remember when Nick Diaz beat him like 10 years ago), and it took them THIS long to catch him...


USADA will start catching people

Not really, he needed something else in order to stay in the same weight class after the IV-ban.

Commentators always tell "this guy is huge, he cuts 20 pounds". Well, now we know why.

I like Tibau though, really solid mid-level fighter.

20lb cut is pretty standard, I'm sure tibau cuts more than that. John Lineker said he used to cut 40lb when he fought at 125 heh, guy missed weight like 3 times tho and I feel like that has to be an exaggeration anyway

Just like Jon Jones tho. If your frame is huge that's just as much, if not more of an advantage, than weight.

Conor looks like an unwrapped mummy at weigh-ins tho, he only cuts 20lb?

He says he walks at 170, I'd imagine he loses a little bit before the cut

Who knows maybe he cuts from 170-175

Yeah he's pretty big. Still has physical advantages over quite a few at LW.
