yeaaaaaaaaaaaah daaaaaaaaaaang thats eddie alvarez wow thats crazy ... didint eddie alvarez and jz calvacante fight grueeeeling stuff no wonder why they get paid what they get paid wanna see him go train and brazil jiu jitsu for 2 years and then come back to UFC he will be a badass he already has the stand up game
People on the internet are so "smart" and "intelligent" that they fail to understand the mindset that goes with being a fighter. It is as if they want to see a fighter say, "oh my god, i so afraid to get into the octagon against my opponent, he's going to kill me". Fighting is as much mental as it is physical and some believe it is more mental. With all the "Doctors", "Expert trainers", "Expert MMA coaches" and "Mentors" on YouTube, i am surprise fighters don't come here for advice!
You have to understand that's the mental state a guy like Melvin needs to be in. He needs to feel that superior, because in reality he lacks the confidence, and knows he will break under the pressure if he can't convince himself otherwise. I do think he has matured, but he has a long way to go. He needs to understand that he may get his ass kicked, and accept it, but still go for the win. Face reality Melvin.
ESPN must think the comment at 1:40 was scripted.. lol.. ESPN sucks.. (" If I make weight, I get half my pay, and my pay is mighty nice") .. melvin seems like a cool dude, but sorry man, I made a nice bit of money by u getting subbed in this fight :)
@MrAmericanBadass7 Yea, it works because it wipes away the sweat and causes ur poures to remain open. there is also a cream u can use to wipe over ur body and it opens ur poures and is suppose to help u cut weght. I am not sure about how it works, ive never tried it.. but have seen ppl use it.
@Panther704 how was he cocky? In most of the Vlog videos he has insane amounts of respect for Miller. From joking around with him to after the fight by shaking his hand.
cutting weight the day before the fight is bogus in my opinion, because the day of the fight a welterweight can walk into the ring close to 185. what the fuck is that about.
@MrAldrenn You ever try to cut weight? Its hard as hell. If your able to go through the process you deserve to fight at what ever weight you make. If both welter weights cut, then they'll both rehydrate to around 185 ish anyway.
@sdeevG Nah, there's very few that weight over 190 at welterweight come fight night. GSP, Fitch, Kos weight between 184 and 187 on fight night. Alves used to come in over 190 but not since his new diet. There arent too many fighters that weight 20+ lbs more on fight night. Walk around weight is a different story.
@GodisonCano GSP says he weighs around 184-187 for fights. In the dvd's they sometimes show him cuttng weight....He was 187 for Shields and 185.5 for Koschek. I know Fitch has the vegan diet going for camps now so yeah he probably weighs less but I'd be surprised if its under 180.
i disagree with cutting weight. The objective is to keep your body as healthy as possible. Cutting 12lbs puts alot of stress on a body. I'd rather not cut weight and fight someone 10-20lbs.
@KennyEverything well actually my point is, your not 100% because you just put a huge toll on your body by dehydratingn then hydrating. frankie edgar doesnt cut weight for this reason. thats all im saying
@littlefry11 Actually Edgar doesn't cut weight because when he first started his carrer, featherweight bouts were hard to find so he fought at lightweight. He doesn't plan on cutting to lightweight because he's champion now. And if done properly weight cutting does not take a toll on ones body.
