Nah that's fine because Robbie Lawler will beat the absolute gently caress out of him and it'll be good and cool.

his run-up to the gsp fight was cool as hell and he legitimately beat everyone in that division for like 2 years before earning his title shot but he's just been slowly chipping away at all the goodwill he accumulated. i also don't remember him having any weight issues before becoming champ.

Well you see he's now a big "whiner" because he has the audacity to get upset after being robbed of victories. He's doesn't take his losses in stride like Brazilian fan favorites who only lose because they had to fly in business class or BJ penn who tried to prove that noted cheat GSP was slathered in coco butter before their fight by bringing his mother to testify in front of the NSAC.

Is tonight the greatest moment in Dominick Cruz's life?

No.

The greatest moment in my life was realizing that I didn't need a belt to be happy.

He had a really good fight with Condit, then a really good fight with GSP, and that was after knocking out a few contenders in Fitch & Kampmann. Then he had a really cool with fight Lawler. Hendricks from 2011 to the summer of 2014 was some good poo poo.

Since then he's just complained that Rory MacDonald got the title shot, which ended up being on the best welterweight fights ever, and then complained that he had to fight Tyron Woodley, who he will now not be fighting because of his own fuckup, and complained about Carlos Condit fighting for the belt which Johny will probably never do again. Oh yeah and his fight with Brown wasn't very good either.

Also he bought a dumb truck and opened up a bad restaurant. And he was the first big Reebok signed dude. So yeah this past year or so hasn't been good for Johny Hendricks at all. The turn is warranted imo.

I still laugh about Hendricks saying he was only giving 70% in the GSP fight and Dana flat out telling him that he should have given the other 30%.

He said that because it was his first 5 rd fight and he didn't want to gas out which is completely sensible. Dana then got really mad and took the quote out of context

One of the fighters on the mmafighter twitter round up said the kidney stones are a sign of a bad diet. Is that true?

I've known people with bad diets who got them but I'm an American so everyone I know has a bad diet.

I think it's a combination of his whining, struggling with making weight where his solution was to lose Dolce and own a steakhouse, and trying to beat Lawler by sticking his head in his crotch for as long as possible. It's a recent trend.

There are a whole host of causes of both intestinal blockages and kidney stones. However, one of the possible causes for both of them is dehydration, and if Hendricks kept his weight down better he wouldn't have to dehydrate as much or as long.

So you can't say definitively that this was because of his weight between camps, but it does seem likely that it wsa a factor.

Benson Henderson just said on twitter he would gladly fight Woodley on 2 days notice and asks for Woodley to call his bluff on it.

I'd be down to see that match tbh. UFC probably won't do it since they need Bendo to be healthy to headline that November South Korea card AND they probably enjoy embarrassing Hendricks at the moment. But that would be a better option than automatically giving Woodley a title shot and his show + win money for nothing.

Oh I know it isn't unreasonable for that situation. I just said it makes me laugh. I haven't watched the fight since seeing it live but I thought Hendricks won on points and that is said as a GSP fan.

Also I'm glad Bendo has regained his cool factor and will fight anyone. Him and Woodley fighting would be worth it for the staredown alone.
