fight pass:
mutapcic-barroso
mutapcic looks good despite the short notice, in at 201
barroso looks good, in at 205
as expected, they are actually similarly sized. barroso might be an inch taller
font-gomez
gomez suuuuuper lean. looks good, tho
font looks solid after the layoff
gomez is 2" taller. font looks stronger.
rosa-bochniak
bochniak looks good, too, considering the last minute replacement
rosa looks good. lil bit drawn out, but good
rosa is 2" taller, looks bigger
o'connell-latifi
o'connell looks mediocre as always. can't believe he hasn't gone down to 185 yet.
latifi a freakin tank, looks as good as ever
o'connell is 3" taller
cruickshank-felder
cruickshank looks alright. bit soft (not the first time for him). makes it.
felder looks phenomenal as always
felder is like 3-4" taller (cruick had shoes on)
fs1 prelims:
blanco-sanders
sanders looks good, but not as good as he does with full camp and at 135.
blanco looks freakin RIPPED. looks like the best cut he's ever made (tho he prayed at the scale) he made it
blanco is 1" taller
baghdad-wade
baghdad long and lean, looks similar to when he was on TUF.. but 157.. wait, wait, towel after some consternation.. this chick can't figure out how the scale works... they now say 156. whew, i almost doubled my wade -3.5 bet.
wade ripped as hell as always, looks great
baghdad is 3-4" taller
herman-boetsch
herman up to 205, and he looks heavy, yea, but i wouldn't say he looks terrible. just thicker.
boetsch on the other hand looks kinda bad back up at 205. i mean, he never looks great, but he looks soft.
herman is 2-3" taller
cote-saunders
saunders looks good. tall and rangey.. normal for him
cote looks solid for him, same as he's been looking the last couple years.
saunders is indeed 2-3" taller
fs1 main:
trinaldo-pearson
trinaldo looks looks as good as he ever has, imo. doesn't seem like a tough cut for him.. another older fighter really finding his groove late?
pearson looks decent, same as always at 155 for him
trinaldo is like 1" taller
mitrione-browne
meathead looks ok for him. kinda soft, but just big. normal. 249
browne looks really good. (lots of boos). 238
browne is 3" taller
alvarez-pettis
alvarez looks outstanding, ripped as hell. he always is, but this is as good as ever. loud chants for eddie
pettis looks a lil bit drained.. but he looks in excellent shape. he looks focused
pettis is prolly an inch taller, maybe two (eddie had shoes on)
cruz-dillashaw
cruz lookin solid, super focused
dillashaw shredded as hell as always, big boo's
cruz is 2" taller
