Dang that is a shitton of weight to shed for 155. When is the last time you fought in that class?

Do you gas as well when you are fighting that "fat"? I mean you can't possibly be doing the same amount of cardio to keep a higher weight, or are you and just eating a shite ton more?

I understand the not being physically big enough. Like BJ Penn fighting GSP. It sounds great but BJ looked fluffy and still is outsized. Just wondered if your cardio was compromised with fighting at that weight. Or is it just a physically bigger man just as skilled as you is probably gonna beat your arse?

Cool to talk to you. Rest up and good luck next fight. Enjoy your cheat meals. If you do that.

Not keeping a higher weight

I am the same size at when I fight at 155 as when I fight at 170

Last summer I fought at 155


I had a scheduled bout in February or so at 160 but they pulled out last minute

Tentatively scheduled for 155 August 2nd on a small show, then again back in legacy august 29th

But is cardio the same? You are cutting down to make 155 so you can do more cardio? Or is that totally incorrect and you are doing the same cardio no matter what and just sweating out a few pounds to get 155?

And you said "168" 13 pounds are easily recoverable? You are saying you walk in the ring at 168?

Correct walk in the ring at 168

So that cut would be water weight

That is what "cut" it when it refers to combat sports

For instance, around thanksgiving and Christmas I can get up to a nice chunky 190

Then I start training and I'll get down to around 170. I will then cut to 155 for a fight, and walk in the ring at 170ish

But it would be inaccurate for me to say I cut from 190. I was just out of shape. My actual cut was only from 170

Just like my opponent this bout last night. He took the fight at 205 pounds 7 weeks out

He diet and trained down to 190, and cut to 170. Walked in the cage at 170

But I would not say that he cut from 205 to 170. He was just carrying a lot of fat

And by a lot I am not talking like a huge fatty. Me at 185 or so still has a 4 pack of abs

But dropping just 5% of body fat will drop my weight like 8 pounds. So going from 17-18% down to under 10% will get me from 185 to 168 easy

I tried to get a fight today. Like literally tonight at the WFC at the belle of Baton Rouge

I got permission last night from the LA athletic commission, got cleared by the doctor, and called the promoter

Told him I would fight for cheap, I just want to fight to get this performance out of my head

Alas there was no room though. No opponent

But, august 2, August 29, and maybe sept 12

Be careful with trying to cram all those fights into a 6-7 week window.

You've got no reason to be down on yourself, you have more balls than any of us.

Keep training, stay focused, and learn and grow everyday.

Most importantly, don't discount yourself financially. Use your notoriety here and keep building a fanbase, get you a website up, start marketing yourself, find some investors in your homebase and put on some shows yourself when you're not fighting, network network and network, document everything, use youtube to your advantage.

Beezy made it all the way to the UFC but idiots here feel they need to give him advice on how to manage his career.

He's not there now is he? It's a bigger fight to get back up that mountain once you've already been there and deemed not up to par.
