Why do people stress out over this shite so much? I swear it seems like fans and the MMA media want to crucify Rumble or Alves about their fricking weight everytime they fight, who the frick cares? They lose money, and if a title is on the line then they lose their shot at that too.

i agree. i like the kid and i wish him well.

quote:
Besides, watching Alves getting thrown around and picked apart because of his height and reach in the middleweight division doesn't excite me in the least.

disagree. he may do well there

In Alves' case for the Hughes fight he clearly said "frick it, I can't make weight" and didn't.

i usually agree with u most of the time but that fight he had a foot injury and couldn't do the cardio to make weight

Do yall see any fights I could make money on tonight?

nothing's guaranteed but the odds on nelson and sonnen are too good to pass up. put down a little cash and the reward will be triple

White should cut Alves. He is showing he cannot make the 170 weight class. Once is ok, but now this is twice and could become a pattern. He should either move up or be cut.

SPOILER

Dennis Hallman just beat Ben Saunders by UD on the undercard. Might have Matt Hughes' next fight lined up already.
