UFC on FOX: Ben Henderson Post-Fight Interview

[MrTdread1]

@1MoreRoundbrother I am a MMA fighter and when I was in wrestling in high school I was the biggest 119 pounder I don't think that made me a pussy it just said I worked out more and worked harder and that I had a low percentage of body fat which is good if you are a fighter I was smart to gain strength it's always good and it helps you in the long run

@MrTdread1

i respect that and know that it takes balls to go through a wrestling program. but i know there's nothing tough or brave about being big, going up against the smallest guy, and still wanting to be bigger.

[takitezy7]

Dont reply to MoreRoundbrother. He is either trolling or stupid, i believe in the latter.

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@takitezy7

you reply to me, then tell everyone else to not reply. i'd say you are hypocritical or stupid. i believe it's either the former of the latter.

Where can I get a hat like that?!

[HOTROD69111]

Can't help but love Bendo, never in a boring fight.



[1MoreRoundbrother]

@HOTROD69111

here's how you can help it. even though he has to be naked for weigh ins, he wants to add more muscle. just because frankie is small, bendo wants to be even bigger. he's going to pack on more muscle to take advantage of the smaller fighter. what a dick. what an asshole. is he that scared that he has to do that ? i hope he pays for it. somehow.

[finerbiner]

@1MoreRoundbrother You are the dick. Getting as large as he can within the rules is a negative how? The guy fights his ass off. That is all you can expect.

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@finerbiner

you are the dick. i'll tell you how getting large as you can is negative, dick. because if you're already the bigger guy fighting a the smaller guy. you're automatically not tough or cool for fighting someone smaller than you. but if you want to get even bigger then you are a pussy.

[HOTROD69111]

@1MoreRoundbrother I didn't realise gaining muscle whilst remaining within the 155 limit made him a dick. Seriously, he's a pro athlete, they're supposed to train to gain every advantage possible over their opponents. Frankie is a fantastic wrestler, Bendo would be stupid not to increase his strength + improve his wrestling if he wants to stay off of his back.

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@HOTROD69111

he's already bigger. he already has to dehydrate himself and strip off his clothes to make 156. frankie might as well be a featherweight or bantamweight, but he still kicks ass at 155. bendo can't ever make a similar claim. he has to bend the rules as best he can. he has to take advantage of the smaller fighter and get even bigger. he's a dick. if he was better, he wouldn't have to try and be even bigger than his already small opponent. but he's not.

[HOTROD69111]

@1MoreRoundbrother Okay, we get it, you're a hater. You think Bendo should move up to 170 so he can fight Fitch, Kos, Rumble and Alves who all outweight him by a far greater amount than he outweighs the typical lightweight.

[takitezy7]

@1MoreRoundbrother if you were a fighter would you do everything in your power possible to give you the biggest advantage to exploit your opponents weaknesses? Its common sense bro, anything else is stupidity masked by your ego.

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@takitezy7

common sense says if you need to put so much effort into being so much bigger than the smallest man in your division; then you are a pussy and you have many insecurities.

[LJisdabest12]

@1MoreRoundbrother At 5'9, 155 really isn't that hard to make. I'm 6'1 and walk around at about 167, and I'm far from lanky. I highly doubt Benson has to cut much weight at all, especially considering he reguarly wrestles and trains BJJ when he's not in training, meaning he doesn't let himself get out of shape. You fight at what ever weight you feel you perform best at, if Benson feels he fights best at 155, so be it. How does that make him a dick?

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@LJisdabest12

it makes him a dick because he's admitted he's a big 155. and he cuts a lot of weight. and since he's fighting the smallest lightweight, he wants to be even bigger. so he's putting on weight.

[LJisdabest12]

@1MoreRoundbrother fair enough, but if that's the case you could make just a strong of a point that Frankie should move down to 145 where he has less of a speed advantage instead of deliberately fighting above his natural weight so he has a superior speed when fighting the bigger 155ers (something he admits himself)?

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@LJisdabest12

speed vs size is a comparison, just not a good one. nobody ever said pick on someone your own speed. all i'm saying is, it takes balls to fight someone bigger than you. it doesn't take balls to fight someone 20 or 30 pounds lighter than you.

[smkscreen10]

@1MoreRoundbrother When Frankie Edgar beats a much bigger fighter no one complains about that and if he feels the competition is to big at 155 then he should go down to a lesser weight class 155 is 155 like it or not..

[1MoreRoundbrother]

@smkscreen10

why would anyone complain about the smaller frankie beating anyone bigger than him ? what kind of thing is that to say ? frankie is the smaller guy. and he beats guys that are bigger than him. who's going to complain ? that takes balls to fight bigger guys. and he beats them. it doesn't take balls to want to be a lot bigger than the guy you're going to fight. there's nothing tough about that.

[ufcpride93]

@1MoreRoundbrother i could say frankie is the pussy fo rnot staying in the pocket to trade shots
