Your not interested in Jacare/Vitor and Werdum/Micioc? Those are two very solid fights. Even though I see Werdum taking it, I think some people are under-estimating Stipe here.

Yup especially now that Werdum has kinda fallen in love with his striking. Stipe has better hands IMO.

Fabricio doesn't have an easy night ahead of him tonight.

To get to 135, she will be easily cutting more weight than Conor and Barao.

Once again, her choice. No one told her to walk around at 175. She use to walk around 160-165. She dieted down this camp. Why can't she do the same to make 135? Why do we give Ronda shyt for not stepping up but not Cyborg for being disciplined and professional to make the proper weight class

The risk is too great for Ronda to move up. The cut is too difficult for Cyborg to make healthy. Should they both fight sure because they both believe they are the best. Ronda isn't the champ now and this is a fan fight no matter the weight class. If Ronda takes the Conor approach she has nothing to lose.

Agree with everything except the Cyborg part. I firmly believe with the right diet and training she could make 135. It's not hard to shed muscle mass. She just refuses. I always suspected she likes to be way bigger then her opponents and if she's at 135 she wouldn't feel comfortable as far as physical strength/ power is concerned

tell that to Adrien Broner who didn't eat for 48 hours, ran 6 miles twice in a 24 hour period sat in the suana, and still couldn't shred a half of pound.

Idiotic. You don't want to lose muscle mass when you go down in weight, just like you don't want to gain fat when you move up in weight.

Cyborg has never fought under 145, if she could've made 135 she would've done so when she was younger, Rhonda has fought above 145

she can easily make 145 and probably hydrates ten pounds above that by the time she enters the cage judging by her physique at the weigh-ins.

Cyborg fought at 135 back in her early days before PED. I don't know much about Broner but I do know he's very undisciplined so I'm not surprised his body refused to cooperate with him. I believe she can make the weight.

The PEDS cyborg took were to help her cut weight and keep muscle on lol
it had nothing to do with her gaining muscle and weight lmao.

There wasn't a 135 division for woman until UFC. Strike Force had a few fights and that was it. All Cyborg fights were at 145 lmao, he lost her first MMA fight by submission on 2005 and beat Gina for the title in 2009.

Rhonda has fought some of the same opponents Cyborg has and beat them even easier lmao

how can you say Broner is undisciplined when he was ran 6 miles in a day and fasted for 48 hours. He lost all the lean muscle mass he could possibly lose without causing serious harm to his body, he's too big to make 140.

Cyborg cannot make 135 and be healthy to fight.
