  • i dont understand, Anthony was supposed to weigh 185 to fight vitor right? how come they said he has to weigh 205 by the end?

  • @ksungjin10

    That's what Vitor Belfort agreed to.. Since Vitor came in at the right weight he gets 20% of Johnson's bout money and also had the right to say no to the fight. He agreed to the "catchweight" fight with the stipulation that Johnson had to be weighed in again on Saturday, no later than 2PM, and weigh no more than 205.

  • @ksungjin10 either he fucked up or it was the catchweight limit

  • song? help pls!!!!!!!

  • @ksungjin10 it was going to be a catch weight bout. plus if he weighed in more than 205 by that time, vitor would not fight him based off the weight disadvantage

  • How the hell did he weigh in at 197? And then on fight night he weight in at exactly 204.2 pounds. Smh There goes his career.

  • @ksungjin10

    By 1300hrs (1 p.m. he weighed 186 lbs; the weigh-ins for that day were like 3 hours later) and was complaining that he couldn't feel his legs. A UFC sanctioned doctor in Rio De Janeiro stongly suggested that he rehydrate in order to feel his legs again. That was what I read from two sources. Still in shock that he used to cut weight to fight at 170 & he can't make 185. His best bet is to go to 205. He can still do pretty good in that weight class

  • @Dannynorw Ur a fucking idiot

  • I dont feel sorry for Johnson, the guy was able to make welterweight, and then miss weight by a buy only a few pounds, he gets to go up a weight class and misses weight by along shot, what kind of athlete is that?

  • @Dannynorw

    black people cant fight? what about muhammed ali and mike tyson? it doenst make any sense what your are saying

  • @ksungjin10

    The fight could still happen in if he weighed in at 205 because he would only be 1 weight class above Vitor. If he weighed 206 he would be 2 weight-classes above.

  • @Dannynorw wtf
