Better pray he makes weight sherbros.

 

[Just Creed]

It's Tiramisu Tuesday. Tony will likely change his mind later in the week.

If Charles cant make weight

 

[Mahkor]

Good, a lot of weight fuckery going around in the last few cards.

Looking at you Platinum Mike Perry.

 

[gaffbyknees2]

Like covid isn't wrecking this anyway

Sounds shook

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

Fingers cross one of the fighters on the co-main or main event doesn't get popped for the buzz killer disease.

Tony doesn’t want to fight

Then why did he sign the contract and prepare for a fight?

 

[Fioretti]

Fuckin people need to stop mentioning ways this fight gets canceled. Let it happen.

 

[joeson]

This fight was already iffy with covid. It doesn’t need Ferguson contributing to it not happening.

Ferguson should try not to trip over any camera cables

 

[Ronoc Rogergcm]

Then why did he sign the contract and prepare for a fight?

Signed contract at 155 pound limit

 

[Wreckless]

Tony doesn’t want to fight

That's why he signed a contract to fight. Makes total sense.

Now I understand why you only have 80 posts in 4 years. You should keep it that way.

Also worth noting:

Oliveira faced Myles Jury on December 19, 2015 at UFC on Fox 17.[46] In the lead up to the fight Oliveira missed weight - his third time in his UFC career - for the bout and it was subsequently contested at a catchweight.[47] Oliveira won the fight via submission in the first round.[48]

Oliveira faced Ricardo Lamas on November 5, 2016 at The Ultimate Fighter Latin America 3 Finale.[51] The bout was contested at a catchweight of 155 lbs, as Oliveira missed weight by nearly 10 lbs

4 weight misses in the UFC alone and one of them by 9 pounds.

Arent all of them at FW though?

More fighters should say this.
That extra ounce of effort spent by your oppenent cutting weight,
can severly influnce the fight because cutting messes with your body

 

[TJH Exitium]

He'd take his show money and refuse to fight?

Bet the UFC executives would love that...


Good luck getting a title shot ever again with that attitude

 

[HockeyBjj]

Good for him

Oliviera misses weight so often, and by more than just that last pound not coming off, it makes one wonder if it's deliberate to have an advantage in the cage of being bigger/not depleted from the cut like his opponent is
