Gastelum 10 pounds over weight. 
The MMA thread
- Thread starter Fortitude
- Start date
I wonder if Diaz will clown around next.
Madness, could see he was broken, really could effect him tomorrow. Such a shame as I'm a big fan of his, this isn't the first time he's had this issue though (Gastelum).
Gonna be an awesome show.

10 pounds though... why not just have stayed in middleweight if he has so much trouble making weight?
Weidman out injured. Rousey - Zingano replaces it as UFC 184 main event. Shitty news.
Edit: Holm - Pennington as co-main? Jeez... good for women's sports I guess but it's a massively downgraded card whichever way you shape it.

That McGregor Q&A was fantastic

I like Gastelum
But what needs to happen tomorrow is for woodly to teach him a lesson. He will come back better for it

And if they decide not to cut Lineker. The ultimatum should be banthem weight or gone
Aww shame, was one of the fights I was looking forward to.
He looked like he was struggling to even walk up the steps to the weigh in platform. It doesn't bode well for tomorrow, or for him remaining at welterweight really.
I've read that he was hospitalised prior to the weigh in, so he'd probably got closer to 170 pounds then was forced to rehydrate by the doctors.
The McGregor Q and A was a really good watch. I enjoy his manic pre-fight stuff, but I was impressed at how articulate he was when he'd calmed down a few notches.
When mcgregor confronted Aldo, after he backed off, grabbed the hands of the security guards to both sides and brought their hands together, so they would be blocking him off from Aldo. At which point McGregor does the 'hold me back, guys, ima kill em' look for the cameras and then leaves.
At least in the WWF the security guards are smart enough to pretend to hold the guy back.
Not that the fight won't be great, looking forward to it big time, I expect it will be more interesting than Jones-Cormier.

Holy feck I just found out Nick Diaz is fighting Anderson Silva tomorrow. I don't think I've watched a fight since the Diaz v GSP one. Come on Diaz!
Tonight isn't it?
Edit: just realised it was late last night when you posted this
I thought I was going to be more excited about this fight but Diaz is going to get destroyed by Silva.
I hope I'm wrong though, just can't see past an easy win for the Brazilian. Unless he breaks something again of course. I know I'll be wincing when he'll throw his first leg kicks.

Well, Pandas and polar bears are no joke.
1st or 2nd round TKO
Anybody watching prelims?
Just started watching for the McCall vs Lineker fight. Excellent fight. Lineker deservedly got the decision.
Derek just handled ed herman
Love it when fights only last 20 seconds
Anderson got knocked out in training not that long ago, like last week I think. Well it is not for sure but it seems likely, so that could help Nick.
I got Diaz winning by KO after Silva throws spinning shit, misses, and Diaz Stockton slaps his weakened jaw to sleep.

"Look at Aldo, completely unfazed by McGregor!"
I tend to not be surprised by things I've pre-planned either, tbh.
Great fight between McMann and Tate.
Anyone watching this through XBMC ? Fire me a PM if you find anything.
Tate did well to turn this around. She looked like she wouldnt even last through the first minute.
Gutted for McMann, she looked fantastic for over a round and a half and then made the mistake in the second getting caught in the guillotine attempt and then swept up when almost landing a takedown in the third. She dominated Tate on the feet and ground in round one and was looking awesome.
Judges off their nut again too, 29-27? Yeah, no.

These judges are feckin nuts. Weird scoring.
Credit to Tate for coming back. She was nearly out in the 1st!
10-8 round for Moesha in the third? Seemed fair enough?
Only if McMann had a 10-8 first round though.
Ah, I missed the first round so I get it now that McMann was as dominant in that as Tate was in the third?
Round Three was never a 10-8. McMann was more dominant in Round One as well which made it even more ridiculous. Just more shit judging mate.
Yeah @PhilipB
McMann had the first round, thought it was going to end tbh. Tate did well to survive that. It was crazy.
That 28-28 made more sense than 29-27 actually. I swear every fight, theres always one judge that scores crazy.

What the feck was all that?
Wow, nice!
I'm not an ufc fighter but wtf he just gave up after one big kick. That was pathetic!
wowww
He just ... went down. That must have hurt bad for him to just ... sit there wincing.
I've taken some big hits playing sport, I'm sure plenty on here have and some hurt more than others. Its not always the biggest hit that hurt most. It could have just been a perfect kick on the perfect spot.
A kick that hard in the solar plexus will screw anyone up. It wasn't giving up as much as a lack of ability to breathe.
