Losing movie deals, her mom making GBS threads all over her and her coaching staff etc. Like when PVZ said she got screamed at by Ronda for saying "Congrats to Holly Holm" for Holly winning a fight, somehow that meant PVZ hated Ronda in Ronda's mind.

She is pretty high up the list, but not in Big Rigg territory.

The idea of Khabib retiring instead of being one of those 50+ fights workrate beasts down the road is depressing as gently caress but y'know for your health

Nibbles! posted:It's more likely down to the IV ban and whatever else was used that USADA's involvement has curbed. This misconception still comes up a lot so I guess it bears repeating. IVs don't help you cut weight, and in fact would make it impossible to effectively cut weight because the whole point of a saline IV drip is to rehydrate you way faster than simply drinking water. IVs were used after hard weight cuts to rehydrate quickly so fighters would frel better by fight time, and were banned for reasons unrelated to weight cutting: the saline solution in an IV flushes your system out and can be used to mask PED use from drug tests, so that is why they are banned. So if a fighter post-IV ban is still making weight but suddenly looks way slower, weaker and more tired in their fights, the IV ban was possibly the reason why. If a fighter instantly can't make weight and constantly looks shittier than usual at weigh ins post-USADA, the culprit is more likely a diuretic they were taking that they feel they can't get away with under USADA, (or possibly just the effects of age and time making it harder to cut weight.)

So if Khabib retires early does that get chalked up to AKA grinding another talent into the dirt well before their prime?

Some journalist basically said because that was said before this weight situation, it exacerbated Khabib's feelings on sticking around and quitting could happen this year, which barring something incredible is absolutely not the case, according to his manager and his dad.
