He needs a new boxing coach too. He's forever shouting out the current guy and how hard they're working together...prior to getting his ass kicked by his opponent's boxing.

Tyson Griffin's a bigger deal and a bigger fight, IMO.

Both guys were pretty big cutters at 155, weren't they? I know they are both pretty short, but I think the cut to 145 is going to be tough.

I think it'll be tough on Joe Daddy, but not so much on Griffin.

Griffin is a short, small dude, and a lot of people said from day one that he would be an obvious one to drop.

He used to have those absolutely gigantic tree trunk thighs, but he hasn't looked as big his last several fights IMO.

I'm rooting for Mitrione, if only because I never want to see Morecraft simulate cunnilingus to the camera ever again.

Marquardt at 170? WTF?

Isn't he huge?

And aren't there even more matchup problems for him at WW than MW? First and foremost, the champ and his training partner GSP?

High 5 · Post #18 » by **High 5** » Thu Apr 14, 2011 3:01 am

lol Rumble/Marquardt will be the biggest sham at WW ever. I don't see how the weight cut helps him. It certainly won't help against Rumble.

cowboyronnie · Post #19 » by **cowboyronnie** » Thu Apr 14, 2011 3:24 am

Marquardt mentioned this after his last win. It's been in the works a long time. IDK what to think. Muscle is a huge percentage of his body weight - he's yoked. He surely spends a great deal of his camp just maintaining that muscle mass...which is a waste of time. That also taxes his cardio and leaves him relatively short for 185.

As far as his camp goes, Rashad will be dropping to 185 pretty soon, I'd bet, and GSP maybe moving up.

Starkiller · Post #20 » by **Starkiller** » Thu Apr 14, 2011 12:54 pm

HowTF is Nate going to hit 170? LMAO. The dude is absolutely deezed out.

That's a great card though for sure. Lot of studs on there.
