Anyone see Romero try to put only one foot on the scale during his first attempt at making weight?
Especially for an Olympic fucking wrestler
Dude should be more than prepared to make weight consistently
Smh
I'm cheering for him anyways cause it'll fuck over WME more if he does
Am I the only one who laughed at UFC countdown when they said 'Romero has trained all over the world from [his home town *edit: in cuba*] to his current training is South Florida?' It's really the same thing, just with more freedom and less cigars.
A very muscular Olympic 40 year old wrestler who can't use special supplements anymoreEspecially for an Olympic fucking wrestler

So if Rockhold wins against someone technically not in his weight class, he does win the belt. I understand why, but it shows what a stupid game the belts and weight cutting are.
140K for UFC 147, Silva vs Franklin 2, lowest since UFC100
I totally forgot these two fought twice.

Big weight cuts. Screwing up your PPV plans and risking fighter safety...again.

Way to over explain the situation Ariel.
All you guys stop bashing the great Yoel Romero. if it wasn't for this there would be NO anticipation for this card but Yoel managed to keep everybody on it and excited for something.
Now if he wins by using the extra weight no one will care and he will reap all the benefits anyway. What will he lose? A worthless interim belt that warrants more shame than pride?? The man has an actual olympic medal in his hardware.

Kick Yoel off the card. Somebody get Bisping on the horn. He will step in on about 15 minute notice.
The guys consistently tries to cheat to get ahead. It's hilarious how people around here will defend him.
So now we have a card that was already kind of weak with a main event that isn't really a title fight? Awesome.
They need to start having active fighters at the professional level weigh in every 3 months or something. These guys need to be fighting closer to their "walk around" weight. Massive weight cuts are bad for the fighters and bad for the sport.
There's no reason UFC can't take their list of active fighters and use LabCorp or Quest or some company like that and have these guys go in to have their weight documented. CDL drivers across the country are subjected to random drug tests, there's no reason we can't have active fighters subjected to weight verification.

I know i sound like a broken record, but Andy Foster’s 10 Point plan endorsed by the ABC Medical sub-Committee and passed by the ABC is the answer here, but unfortunately state AC’s and large organizations continue to wait for another high profile death.
Imma be pissed if they take away my dang motocross
