CommonShore posted:Then her duty was to report it to USADA immediately instead of waiting til she tested positive. She also failed to declare it when the test took place. Her doctor works with Olympians too, so you would think they'd have advised her to declare. If it was anyone else we'd probably take it at face value though.

tesilential posted:Woodley beat wonderboy in every aspect of MMA. I didn't see any of you predict that... Didn't see it posted, but UFC just put Woodley-Thompson 1 on youtube as a free fight. People can review it if they want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RfZmIdc9mg Woodley has the biggest moments in the fight, catching Wonderboy with his right hand, getting takedowns, the near-finish from the guillotine, but in terms of running time a huge proportion of the fight was Wonderboy kickboxing him up from the outside

Look, #1 Cyborg fan here so take my view with a grain of salt, but does anyone think a tough Brazilian athlete is going to feel comfortable openly telling people her ovaries are busted? Everything seems to make sense to me if it gets past USADA.

It is lol though that Cyborg got her TUE despite failing to declare on at least two occasions whilst Michida sits on the sidelines despite never popping.

Letournau at least dropped three straight. Cirkunov is an undefeated prospect in a division which desperately needs prospects.

From Letourneau's instagram post about the whole thing, it sounds like she couldn't make the cut to 115 anymore but knows she's too small for 135 and isn't going to fight anymore unless it's for an organization that has women's 125. It'll be interesting to see if she pops up in Invicta.

Krylov is guaranteed entertainment. If that dude can't even hang around as a mid-carder then what the gently caress kind of product is UFC trying to sell us

Anyone have any idea how much weight fighters cut the night before weight-ins? Is it usually a pound or two at that point?

tumor looking batty posted:Anyone have any idea how much weight fighters cut the night before weight-ins? Is it usually a pound or two at that point? The day/night before they're doing the biggest part of the cut. The idea is you minimize the time you're dehydrated. A natural body builder I used to work with that did similar cuts would shed around 15-20 lbs of water (mostly through pissing) the day/night before a competition so that he would have the best stage look. That's a little under a 10% cut but he dieted down to around 230ish before the water cut.

I have no idea since BT run everything UFC here and Bellator has like a midnight rerun on UK SPIKE TV which has a reach of about 5 guys and a do, but is SPIKE a better network than FS1 in the US, hence them not running head to head?

Personally I am real glad Misha and Horiguchi are gone but the UFC had the good sense to keep Chris Avila (0-2), Angela Magana (0-2), Thibault Gouti (0-3), Kailin Curran (1-4), and Jessica Eye (1-5) around.

Seriously though is there an undercurrent of these winners being cut because they're not Young American? Kicking prospects is just loving bizarre enough but if its only foreign prospects the interpretation may be "oh."

Krylov was the one who opted to not resign:quote:“I'm not particularly upset. God willing, there is still opportunities after a couple of years. There wasn’t a stumbling block, in fact. The only thing is that the old contract ended, and they wanted me to sign a new one. I did not want to, and because of this the UFC did not give me a fourth fight, relying on the contract and agreed to let me go.” http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2017/2/18/14656970/krylov-not-particularly-upset-after-opting-not-to-re-sign-with-the-ufc That makes me kind of sad. I was hoping that he'd end up breaking the most career UFC fights record.
