Yes and Nate killed himself to make 155 each time. The same degree of Aldo making 135, Dillishaw at 125, etc. If anything, he's stronger and better off.

He didn’t milk himself to make 155 every time. He literally fought there for over a decade...

No shame in Askren from this fight. He was winning up until the finish, and Maia seemed like he was fading. If there's a loser, it's wrestling. This fight was a clear display of wrestling vs jiu jitsu, and jiu jitsu won out. Specifically Maia's ability to sweep from bottom position and then pass guard on top. High level wrestler vs high level BJJ guy, turns out BJJ wins

Jorge has won one decision in the last 5 years, and that's against Ross Pearson. And you think one of the reasons he'll win is because he has the stamina to hang with Diaz, because you believed something Nate the neanderthal said about gassing in round 3 against Pettis?

If it goes 5 rounds, Nate's winning, because he puts out so much more than Jorge. Masvidal has a power advantage. But I'm not sure that comes into play, because Nate is really slick with his movement and doesn't often get caught flush.

nate has won 1 more lol

and that was against AP who is 4-7 in his last 11 fights w/ everybody beating him the same way nate did. and michael Johnson. he lost a decision to conor, his only decision victory in his career where both fighters weren't severely injured.

Fk that. Fighters say stupid things. Nate won 30-27 and never looked like he gassed. And he's never gassed in his career either, he's known for his cardio

You know Nate’s body better than he does. What did he eat for breakfast this morning?

This is exactly why I'm all in on Nate.

Really was hoping Askren would win but man this hype train isnt looking so good. I know Maia is dangerous on the ground but so is Ben maybe not as much but still

Isn't looking so good? It's dead - it's either a Lawler rematch or Bellator for him.
