Yup, imagine how happy they must feel weighing in with a full stomach without stumbling like DC did.


Probably, they are also probably happy they don't have to fight DC lol

Was not aware. Just looked, Pride had some funky weight classes. Trying to match boxing?


boxing weight classes are significantly lighter than mma weight classes. LHW in boxing = 165ish lbs

He's actually correct. There wasn't really a ceiling and heavyweight in pride was for anything above 205

Dana White refuses to say "Conor is stripped" while being pushed Ariel.

Tony vs Khabib is 100% for the title!

I personally find it odd that the Japanese set the weight classes higher than here in the States. Not really sure that I care, but find it odd.

Well it's because they only had 3 originally. Lightweight (185) middleweight (205) and heavyweight iirc. They didn't add lighter divisions till later under the bushido promotion or w/e it was.

Boxing has a weight class for like every 3 lbs almost to the point where it's ridiculous.
