Cutting 22 lbs as a bantamweight seems like a lot. Does someone with more weight cutting knowledge know what the typical BW cut is like?

Pulling a number completely out of my rear end, I'd guess 10-15 pounds. But it's hard distinguishing how much of that is dieting and how much is water weight. It's an inexact science.

Someone already posted it but during the Embedded he does this insanely tough looking workout and then as they are walking back probably to stuff their fat bantamweight faces his partner/coach or whatever goes "are you already cutting weight?" and he goes "I will soon". I have never had to cut weight but the process does sound pretty lovely and people have medical related problems that they can't control so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. I'm glad he is okay but I really wanted to see this fuckin fight again. I liked the first fight it had me cheering and hooting and hollering. Joe Soto is the big unknown just like Ifir Latifi was the big unknown and Patrick Cummins was the big unknown. We all remember how those went.

Jim Dwyer posted:I thought I read Faber walked around close to 155 or something but it was ages ago so I'd never be able to find the source He does, so does Cruz and other BWs, but like bundt brought up in the other thread yesterday everybody has a different definition of "cut," some people mean the entire diet + draining fluid out of their bodies and some people mean the ~last week. The weights I posted were what those guys weigh about a week from the fight, but I think Cruz said he's got better about that since changing his diet from fast food to mostly healthy.

I've cut to 147 from 163 or so for muay thai fights, and that sucked. Ian McCall will cut anywhere from 15 to 20+, depending on how responsible he has been maintaining his weight in training. It's generally around 1/5 or 1/6 or his fight weight. It is insane.

It actually makes sense that Joe Soto is fighting in the main event because this card feels like a Strikeforce vs. Tachi Palace showdown.

Anyone else notice just now that in the bottom right hand corner for 178 they promoted the Flyweight Title fight and the Conor fight... Not Alvarez/Cowboy? Hope that fight is not called off.
