I wouldn't watch his videogame streams but I'd watch his coke bender streams for sure

20lbs would only be a little bit above the average for a cut to lw i'd say.

Yeah but it's Thursday. Don't they usually get closer than that with like 24 hours to weigh-in?

The media I've heard seems to be jerking off Kevin Lee pretty hard on his mic savvy. Have I missed something? From what I've seen I got the impression he was just another Conor imitator who tries talking a lot of poo poo but isn't that good at it.

I mean Conor imitates a whole lot of people who came before him so that's not exactly a knock on the guy. He's not bad, it just doesn't feel like he buys his character as much.

depends on your technique but 24 hours is about right to start losing water.

Kevin Lee is funny, he's really good at riling up the McGregor fans which if he ends up winning will be a good thing for him.

That tiramisu thing is actually a pretty decent burn.

Khabib would be an excellent Super Lightweight champion, it's just a pity the UFC will never have a championship in that division.

I hate watching legends like Carlos get killed by hungry fighters

It's cool when retired or semi-retired guys come back hungry like they were 10 years ago but watching condit getting smashed because hes been doing well in the gym makes me sad and I don't like it when it lets all the noobs say "he always sucked, couldn't wrestle, trained with gay greg jackson'

That being said, I want to watch Carlos Condit fight again. One of my favorites of all time

I never liked him because he wasnt good at wrestling

Yeah Vitor's initial onslaught was one of the many compelling reasons to watch him. I also liked how gay his hair got over time, culminating to me with that rat tail with a cross etched on the side of his head.

I was under the impression Vitor was roided as hell in his late teens/early twenties. I don't remember what my source for that is though so I may be totally wrong.

for like 10 years until 2016 vitor only lost to jones, silva + i think weidman and he very nearly got jones. its hard to say he wasnt great but when people say stupid stuff like everyone in professional sport is on steroids or other peds, i wonder why then do people like vitor seem to benefit from them far more than everyone else.

while i think the fact that him and his doctors have enough experience to make him look like he was carved from marble in his late 30s was a big part of it, he also massively improved his technique. more than anything though; vitor without confidence is nothing, and the mindbending amount of drugs he was on + the long string of insane rear end beatings he handed out gave him a lot of confidence.

It's hard to say how much steroids were helping someone when the first time we see them without steroids is 25 years into their career.... tough to say.

Like maybe a steroid free 23 year old vitor would have been basically the same fighter but there's no way to know when the first time he's steroid free he's also 40 with 70 fights under his belt...

Everyone is on something, if one roided guy beats another roided guy, first roided guy is better and would beat him without roids for either?

I still favoured vitor against rockhold circa the weidman match or shortly there after, and that made people rrally mad. I dont know if i still would but instead of fijding out i hope he super retires
