Brock lesnar is the fucking man. the guy is 265 pounds of muscle. he was on top of mir the whole time. mir talked alot of shit because of the first fight. lesnar was a new fighter so he caught him off gaurd, but i think lesnar is the next big thing in the ufc.
the henderson and bisping fight, bisping was so cocky during the ultimate fighter, i like him as a fighter but he deserved that extra punch.

he's 265 for the weigh in bro, in the ring he's pushing 285-290. Thiago does the same thing, they say he was almost 200 for the fight with GSP. They should make the weigh ins a couple hours before the fight so that there isn't this big discrepancy....either that or make a SHW division so that Brock can just say fuck it and come in at 300. He just has too much mass for 230-240 pound guys. Velasquez is the only guy in the division who'll be able to test him.
bro, i know how it works. they cant make the weigh ins a couiple hours before the fight because the person trying to lose weight to get there will be drained, tired, weak, etc etc etc. every fighter fights at a lower weight. anderson silva is 205 and fights 185, gsp is 185 and fights at 170, bj pen is 165-170 and fights at 155. its an advantage. why would anyone want to fight at a higher weight. only person that i know is anderson silva who fought at 185 and at 205, but thats why he is ranked the #1 pound-for-pound mma fighter.

Well my feeling is that if you're going to fight at 170, you shouldn't have to cut more than 10 pounds to get there. Look at Lesnar when he came out for the weigh ins, the difference between that and when he fought is unbeleivable. It's just too much. If Lesnar has to make 265 for the fight, he should be fighting at no more than 270 which means that's the weight he has to basically train at. Thiago putting on nearly 30 pounds in a day and a half is just ridiculous.....shouldn't be allowed.

How's it different from any other sport that competes in weight classes?

It's not, I'm just saying that guys should be held to the weight they weigh in at, otherwise what's the point weightclasses?
bro, you act like they go back home and put on 30 pounds of muscle. its just water weight and glycogen storage that they had to lose to drop weight. obviously brock is a big guy and will hold on to alot more water and he has to eat to fill his glycogen back. you act like its cheating. anyone can fight at any weight, they just have to make weight at the weigh ins. boxing is the same. its not like brock or thiago's fault that gsp and mir didnt take advantage. obviously if it were cheating, the rules would be different, but its not. boxing is the same way and they havent changed any rules. so thiago was 200 pounds during the fight, the weight obviously didnt help him.

I"m not saying it's cheating necessarily......but it certainly helped Lesnar no doubt. I think he wouldn't lose any strength if they held him to 265-270....he just wouldn't have so much freakin mass. It doesn't make for good fights when one dude has the ability to weigh 40-50 pounds more than his opponent. You could tell that Mir trained at his bodyweight......he's just not in the same weight class as Lesnar. If they keep things as is, they're basically forcing guys to put on 20-30 pounds of muscle so they can even remotely compete with Lesnar. ANd that OBVIOUSLY is going to encourage drug use. I'm not saying Lesnar is using roids now, but he certainly achieved his mass and frame from prior drug use....that is a given. I'm not taking anything away from his athletic ability......but he either still used GH or used it extensively in the past. ONe look at his face is all you need. He's not the only one though.
he would definitely lose strength. he came in at exactly 265. im sure hes dehydrated and weak from all the cardio, dehydration, sauna, etc etc. and brock was only 275. thiago alves weighs 200 and had to drop to 170 to make weight, i dont htink he jumped back to 200 for the fight. also, dont forget, when you deplete your glycogen storage, then start filling it back up, you have 1.5 as much space to fill. thats why bodybuilders deplete their glycogen the wek before the show and jump up 12-15 pounds the day of from all the carbs. and theyre just posing, these mma fighters need the carbs for endurance for these five 5 minute rounds. n ot trying to be a dick or anthing bro, just stating something when it does sound a bit rediculous.
