[@envy4997]

Henry doesn't get the credit he deserves: - beat mighty mouse - beat a juiced TJ when Henry didn't cheat - saved a division - beat Marlon - became double champ - beat Cruz and got in his head, even tho Cruz is known for that - and ofc the Olympic gold medal

@@carltheron yeap

[@amadeuswinqvist2893]

Especially when you consdider they have to cut those five pounds when they're in a drained state already. Makes a huge difference in energy levels.

[@leerobbo92]

@@carltheron Well, yeah. Just look at the pure percentages, it's almost halved for heavyweights compared to 135. For 265 it's under a 2% weight difference, for 135 it's just under a 4% weight difference. You're half way to the Featherweight weight limit. That's why the smaller weight classes go up in 10lb increments, but the difference between light-heavy and heavyweight is 60lbs.

Triple C needs to come back and fight Amanda Nunez for the Inter Gender Championship 4C's Let's go!!

[@justinsullivan5839]

She’d knock his little ass out.

[@lMexicanSuperFriends]

C4

[@SonofHsu16]

It’s different man, Nunez I don’t think wins that fight because he’s naturally stronger and a far better wrestler than Amanda will ever face. Then of course he’s a damn solid striker. Inter gender fighting is terrible because it’s never perfectly balanced. You can be the same weight but that doesn’t mean strength and speed are the same. Men has a larger skeleton size and bone mass and density which means they can hit harder and can have larger muscle mass attached to their skeleton so naturally they are stronger. Male athletes aren’t better per say but it’s like apples and oranges. Amanda can knockout and beat some lower level male feather and bantamweights but that next level isn’t fair. Not because she isn’t good she’s the GOAT of women’s MMA. But because physically, it’s never even. Mix gender sports isn’t a good idea.

I’m glad they tested tj samples before he fought cejudo as well because we really got some closure as fans that he only took eponwhen he cut that weight for that particular fight. But I honestly want them to fight again it was one of those situations where the fight was so fast and tj got caught right off the bat. I often wonder if he could beat tj in a rematch. Hopefully they can rematch with no drugs involved and at the higher weight class. Tj is so skilled and so is cejudo they are really the top two in those weight classes I think.

yea you kinda just do start taking it lol EPO is naturally occurring in your body. When it's secreted your body makes more RBCs-- which carries oxygen to all the cells in your body. tjs hematocrit was low and that's why he was feelings burntout. sooooo be starts taking EPO and spikes his hematocrit back to normal or probably slightly elevated. You dont stay on EPO with super high hematocrit very long mostly because you die from a heart attack or TIA

It's what Lance Armstrong took. The easiest definition without getting into the science is, it allows a person to push harder and longer at high intensity than they could naturally.

[@DarthBane-zf8wv]

It allows your body to produce more red bloods cell which allows you to have greater oxygen storages between 10-20%. So yes, your cardio is exponentially improved. You gain much more than 10-20% more endurance just like you would gain more than 20% strength if your muscle mass increased 20%.
