    it looks like they all knew he was way over. if you look at the weigh in video some lady is whispering someone to rogan and some commission's guy and lorenzo walked up to the scale when he jumped on. all good tho, rumble would have beat him anyway

    As I said, a statement was released before the weigh-ins even started

    His manager is claiming that he became ill and the UFC doctors gave him fluid.

    Nope. However, I also never received an iv of fluids after trying to make weight.

    We may never know the truth, but I think we will see him fight heavy and not have any trouble with stamina.

    This is very possible. I see this often with clients. They've created "metabolic damage" because of drastic weight loss methods. Very hard to fix also.

    Helps Vitor in my opinion. AJ has to weigh 205 or under at 2pm tomorrow. That's only 8lbs from weigh in time. He won't be able to eat or drink much in order to make that weight and even after that there will be a limit of how much he will be able to eat before fight time without risking his feeling ill. At least he should be able to get on an IV drip and fully hydrate. God knows how all of this will affect his performance.

    Rumble weighs in at 204.5 today.

    Fight is on and I took a little +115.

    I think we see him fight just fine.
