Dang Masvidal gained some weight

[@davidkershaw5379]

Who does dang fight for? Or are you just making it up because I think Dang isn’t a real name or person. Sorry it might be a chink name but I still never heard of them.

6:30 tai accusing DC of drinking chocolate milk made me laugh so hard

[@IAMJEFFREY-cw9ns]

I actually believe Tai when he says he never lifted weights. Guys like him, Mark Hunt, the Tafa brothers have the ability to easily put on weight & they're naturally strong. Conditioning is the vast majority of Tai's work in the gym so that he can stay within the heavyweight limit of 265lbs and also have decent cardio.

Tai Tuivasa is a genuinely good dude inside and out. No political BS or hatred, just good vibes and knockouts. He has a beautiful son, elite fighting skills, 6.25 inches, and all of western sydney behind him. We stand behind you brother.

The homie here (Cormier) had some serious demons with alcohol. Not sure if he still drinks at ALL but I hope not. Wanna see this man live forever… but yeah I get your point and these two def have a good rapport

[@davidjackson4606]

No, right at the start of the interview Cormier doing his usual weird alpha dominance thing he always does and then touches Tai on the shoulder which Tai clearly hates. He then spends the rest of the interview trying to get Tai to like him.
