In just ten days, Chris Weidman was forced to cut THIRTY TWO pounds for his middleweight fight against Demian Maia. "It was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life," he tells UFC Tonight analyst Ariel Helwani. Take that cardio haters.

  • @JohnnyBoyCali I am not against weight cutting at all, but having 10-11 days is too dangerous for that much weight. Everything Weidman was describing in the interview was severe dehydration and the beginnings of acute renal failure. Yes it falls on the athletic commissions but they could've made it a 195 catchweight, and that fight might not have sucked as much. Someone needs to step up and protect these fighters, if one of them dies during a cut it would be disastrous for Zuffa.

  • His cardio isn't questionable.. he had ten days to lose 32 pounds... cut him some slack...

  • He took the fight on 10 days notice. The guy did what he had to do to win. Period end of story! Great job Chris

  • @Starjet4 for being a frightened little boy , man up.

  • Demian Maia's stand up looked nothing like when he fought Mark Munoz and he gassed badly. It looked like drunk fighting

  • such a bad showing for UFC...Horrible

    And that comes from a huge fan

  • @ghostKurt no pun intended i assume. lol

  • @leeus20007 no excuse for what you fucking dick cheese drinking faggot

  • You could say that he could have done a better job of staying in shape even when he doesn't have a fight lined up but then again, the UFC initially told him he wouldn't be fighting again until April. These guys put their mind and body through a lot of stress and need some down time in between fights. The real question is why did Maia's cardio look as bad as a guy who had to cut over 30 pounds in a week in a half?

  • @Starjet4 you are an armchair fuckwit ,you have no excuse

  • There's no excuse, he wasn't forced to fight, he was offered the fight, he can't make shitty weight excuses, next time dont take the fight if you weigh that much. his cardio sucks cock

  • @dvnmiller11 Gassing isnt always about weight cutting. All the fighters on the main card looked gassed. Bisping and Chael were gasping for air too. Phil Davis looked like he was about to die from exhaustion and rashad never had the energy to finish the fight. It was really just a crappy card all round, but it was free.
