Whats with all these suit wearing wankers

by Cpt Mason on Oct 22, 2010 5:07 PM EDT reply actions  

The reason

Why this fight is in California is because they have the most strict PED test. Just check how many people have gotten caught using PEDs after a fight and almost all have been tested positive after fighting in California. Just to refresh peoples memory, Mr. Chael Sonnen tested positive…where? Cali. So i hope this stops all the Brock=steriods question. He’ll come in at a solid 264.

No need to carry around the extra weight

He’s as strong at 265 as most big guys (like Carwin) would be at 285. If you don’t have to cut, why do it?

This ^

He doesn’t sacrifice any strength in being leaner.. He just carries around less body fat and doesn’t have to cut as much.. He still had to cut for this fight.. And he’ll probably be 5-10 lbs heavier by tomorrow..

Negative ghost rider..

He’s at peak strength..

Leaner and cardio.. sure.. It’s mostly because of diet..

He hasn’t lost anything in strength.. He’s the exact same size he was in college About 265 @ 9-10% body fat.. He’s in peak condition…

I'm not..

But just because he is leaner doesn’t mean he sacrificed anything in the strength department..

He is eating a super clean diet, thus decreasing body fat percentage.. Will it help his cardio.. I’d say maybe..

But Luke Richesson has him at peak physical strength.. I do know Luke.. :)

Brock is too big for Cain to win.

thats how martial arts works.

It was developed for smaller guys to take on bigger guys or anything.

it is how it works in wrestling which is what I think this comes down to. I don’t think Cain is big enough to keep Brock from taking him down.

too big

too strong, too athletic, too everything

Wow

Fighter bashing? Really? That’s hilarious. Because I said a fighter looked like a bag of poopy flavored lolly pops? I’m glad I get warnings for incendiary comments like that and Danago gets to post like a lunatic. Good job BE!

Damn...20 Pounds

Equals a lot of mass. cain looks like a LHW next to Brock

by Lunatic-Fridge on Oct 22, 2010 5:52 PM EDT reply actions  

What was the size difference when Randy gave Brock a hard time?

by bleve_ on Oct 22, 2010 5:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

yeah, and cain ain’t no old man.

randy had a HUGE experience edge and a great gameplan in that fight, and still lost due to the size advantage.

by traydawg on Oct 22, 2010 6:00 PM EDT up reply actions  

He lost because hes old. Old NOG even knocked him down, several times.

yes he lost because he was old too.

by traydawg on Oct 22, 2010 6:02 PM EDT up reply actions  

If Randy had the knowledge he has now with the body he had 15 years ago

the man would be unstoppable

That

was more of an experience difference.

Cain could drop to 235 with only fat loss. Granted, he’s not “fedor doughie” but a lot was made over that fact there wouldn’t be a huge weight advantage. There obviously is a big difference because Cain is not ripped at 244.

by Lunatic-Fridge on Oct 22, 2010 6:00 PM EDT up reply actions  

If CAIN dropped a few lbs of muscle, and actually leaned out, he could easily fight at LHW. He really isn’t much bigger then Forrest or Bader.

by Sqwibbs on Oct 22, 2010 6:02 PM EDT up reply actions  

He just finished a full camp… 40lbs is a lot of weight.

by bleve_ on Oct 22, 2010 6:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

but he's not exactly lean...

if he actually eats anything like he did in the primetime episode, then he could easily drop 10ish lbs of fat just by dieting. And I am sure he has been doing extra strength training in this camp.

If he lost ~5-10lbs of muscle and ~10lbs of fat he would be able to make LHW pretty easily.

Cain vs Bones :-x

oh good god, please no, lol my two favorite fighters going toe to toe..

I don’t think Cain would ever make the switch. Would be interesting though

by crewshal on Oct 22, 2010 6:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

he would lose his most valuable asset though

his unrelenting pace. If he cuts down to 205 we would see Cain turn into Ryan Bader, as in he would gas before the first round ends.

Maybe...

In my totally unscientific, completely irrelevant opinion, Bader has a bunch of upperbody muscle he doesn’t need, that Cain wouldn’t have.

Plus, Griffin drops down from ~230 and manages to keep up a pretty relentless pace.

I love when a second round tko after a clear 10-9 first round is Lesnar having a hard time…

Carwin gave Lesnar a hard time, Randy not so much.

Guillotine.
