Every guy that goes up weight says the same thing..." This is the best I've ever felt. This is my natural weight class. Not cutting weight has made me have no injuries. I feel wonderful. First time ever!"

Outside of Anthony Johnson and horsemeat overseem, has anyone else actually had a true second life going up in weight after losing at a lower?

Well, striking seems to be the dominate part of the game right now.

Wrestling has been stalemated it seems with decent TDD and BJJ has been diminished by sub defense.

Weidman’s chin has been compromised since the Rockhold fight, and pretty much destroyed in the Romero fight. Sucks for him because he still has a high level skillset. I don’t know how Overeem’s done it for all these years, but it’s going to be tough for Chris.

Minus that losing talk of course.

Reyes just beat a 185 and is excited like he's ready for Jones?

Reem has a real KO chance on every strike
Chris really doesn't

that is how I see it

That's the worst thing that could have happened for his career. He was ranked #4 going into the fight, and dominated. Santos and DC are out and no one wants to see Smith again anytime soon. At the same time, he's definitely not ready for JBJ but a fight that quick could have them fighting by December.

GSP planned that well.

He and his coach understand MMA math and match making.
and also know how to attack a man with one eye
Props to GSP but that is a legally blind man fighting LOL...a very dangerous top ranked Champ one eyed man
props to GSP and Mike B
