@@TheFlyingKitten22 he makes weight fine so that’s not a reason at all

[@TheFlyingKitten22]

@@owenbighead what were getting at is dicipline. Masvidal doesn't have the dicipline khabib does. That's what makes khabib lvls above the mediocres like masvidal. Masvidal has zero dicipline drinking and eating junk food which is not good for a fighting body. To be a champ you need to have that dicipline in and out of the octagon.

Weight cutting should be abolished. Make it Happen Dana!

​@@bhoomeerg8045 I do not think so. If the fight is at a certain weight they should make the weight and if they do not they should get less money or have the fight called off.

Very Excited to see that this is the new wave for fighters and athletes. Let's lead a good example for the next generation. I was raised well, but then I became a product of my environment. I broke that cycle 22 months ago. I replaced it with healthy habits, both physically and mentally. Stay in School, Stay Into Sports, Stay with what you truly love to do. Get plenty of sleep, food, drink, and exercise. Stay Clean. God Bless!

Man prop to Dana white on making ufc a multi billion dollar business I’ve been doing Muay Thai and boxing for 15 years and back in 2009 when ufc was coming up I really thought this crazy chicken cage fighting thing wasn’t going to last longer then 5 years especially when the ufc couldn’t even reach a quarter of boxing ppv sales. And now we have bare knuckles boxing and mma on KZbin and it all happened because of Dana white.

[@HowardJonesOfficial]

Does it not diminish the quality and nutrient profile of the food when you microwave / radiate it? It doesn't turn it into McDonalds but it's never as healthy as when it's fresh. It's just convenient.

[@trifecta8414]

Not necessarily

[@HowardJonesOfficial]

@@trifecta8414 Please elaborate, I'm curious to learn more!

[@trifecta8414]

@@HowardJonesOfficial There's no sound science (at least that we've been able to find) that can pinpoint microwaved food to diminished nutrient density. It is natural to see a % decrease/loss of nutrients when cooking food, but it also makes the food digestible. There's a correlation between human's ability to cook food, the development of the brain, and evolution that shows the benefits of cooking food for the human being.
