Crazy lol. I’m glad you brought that up. All these haters in the comments are pretentious. Truth is only true fans who follow the sport or have done it know how difficult weight cutting is on the body. Depleted my literally de-hydrating yourself. Lol. How crazy is that? No water. I don’t care if you’re thirsty. And sweat more buddy. Too much water weight in you. Put on pounds of sweatpants and sweatshirts and throw on a pound of garbage bags over it all. Now run. Keep running. And they fight the next night. Crazy bastards lol. Crazy respect.

[@Joe-mr2kt]

Izzy will be alright after he gets hydrated. He looked dehydrated and probably had a crazy headache that’s why he was wincing at the lights. Might need to go up in weight this after this one

[@cmi8842]

He hasn’t had trouble cutting weight .. they said he put on more muscle this camp . Remember he weighed in 205 with a pizza … he’s just got to adjust to his new mass

[@4WDG]

I agree ☝️ he’s head must be pounding like crazy and those camera flashes and bright lights didn’t help much.

[@4WDG]

Interesting that Alex weighed in lighter than Izzy? 🤔

[@lcb5107]

Nah man he definitely doesn’t need to go up he only cut like 20 pounds

[@lolly_bread]

Don't think he can go up in weight. The heavier dudes, eg. Jan, just rag doll him.

[@83alibaba]

They both look out of it, by doing this weight cut!

[@zenjigaming3342]

They r using different scale machine ?

[@bolo5190]

Pereira could easily fight at lhw because of his bone structure. I mean he was fighting at lhw in kickboxing, even Adesanya was fighting at lhw in kickboxing but Adesanya has a slimmer bone structure than him in either division, they are both around the same height because it's not often Adesanya fights someone his height in the UFC mw division but out of all the short fighters compared to Adesanya that Adesanya beat I thought Yoel Romero had the tools to possibly beat him but for sure that didn't happen. In the UFC in general the only fight where Adesanya's height and reach was a non factor was vs Jan Blanchowic and Jan is elite. It's the same thing with Jones vs Reyes. Jones fought someone his height and they were elite and lost most ppl believe but with that being said look at the projection of Reyes's career after his fight with Jones, it is just declining but he is fighting tomorrow too.

[@sheileborges3000]

Romero beat Genderbender. Clear 49-48

[@arjenrobbed1294]

Jan gets credit for hardly hurting a smaller champ? Lol Izzy was way under sized prob 20 lb difference between the two on fight night

[@strangehobbyist4953]

@Arjen Robbed and that was Izzy's fault for not bulking up. Weight classes exist for a reason. Not everyone's body is capable of jumping between weight classes. Stop trying to discredit Jan. He's a better striker than Izzy. Stop making excuses for Izzy. The better man won that fight.
