He seems to have a small waist and was talking about having a "long slow weight cut" during his last camp aka basically just losing weight instead of cutting, how much does Conor weigh when he walks inside the cage? He couldn't possibly mean that hes 155 right now and doesnt cut anything, right?
McGregor had to extremely dehydrate himself to step on the scale at 145. Look at the pictures below. The last two are Sodiq Yusuff and Alexander Volkanovski also weighing in at 145 lbs, but in California, which means we know that they rehydrated to 169.2 and 166.5 lbs the next day. McGregor is visibly more dehydrated, so he almost certainly cut more water weight than both Yusuff and Volkanovski. That means McGregor rehydrated to enter the cage around 170-172 lbs at featherweight.He seems to have a small waist and was talking about having a "long slow weight cut" during his last camp aka basically just losing weight instead of cutting, how much does Conor weigh when he walks inside the cage?

How could he have weighed 170 rehydrated at featherweight when he only hit 167 for his fight against diaz?McGregor had to extremely dehydrate himself to step on the scale at 145. Look at the pictures below. The last two are Sodiq Yusuff and Alexander Volkanovski also weighing in at 145 lbs, but in California, which means we know that they rehydrated to 169.2 and 166.5 lbs the next day. McGregor is visibly more dehydrated, so he almost certainly cut more water weight than both Yusuff and Volkanovski. That means McGregor rehydrated to enter the cage around 170-172 lbs at featherweight.
At lightweight, McGregor's body fat percentage isn't as low, he enters the cage with around 4-5 more lbs of fat and around 1-3 more lbs of muscle compared to his featherweight days. That means he rehydrates to 175-180 lbs after weighing in at 155-156. He seems to keep his body fat percentage fairly low both in and out of camp, so his walk-around weight is likely 183-187 lbs.
McGregor stepped on the scale weighing 168 lbs at the official weigh-ins the day before each fight with Diaz. Why was he less than 170-172? Because he was slightly dehydrated from cutting a little bit of water weight. Those fights weren't in California, so he wasn't weighed a second time on the day of the fight. Therefore, we don't know how much he actually weighed inside the cage against Diaz. But it was certainly more than 168 lbs. Up until 2 weeks before the first Diaz fight, he was scheduled to fight RDA for the belt at lightweight. Conor had been bulking up a bit to fight at lightweight, which means he weighed a bit more than 170-172 inside the cage against Diaz. He never went back to featherweight.
Lol @ believing Conor didn't cut to 168
