    Calculated UFC 158 weigh in observations

    Here's the notes I took as I watched the weigh ins.

    I use the weigh ins to tweak my vital handicap by + or - 10-20%


    George Roop looks enemic -- energy is off -- Reuben Duran -- looked healthy
    Tj Dillashaw looked normal and healthy - Issei Tamura looked normal
    Rick Story looked soft and off cell tech vs Quinn Mulhern looked normal came in a bit under weight.
    Makdessi looked normal vs. Cruickshank looked healthy and energetic
    Jordan Mein looked confident and healthy vs. Dan Miller looked cracked out
    Carvahlo looked strong vs. Elkins looked small and weak
    Bobby Voehlker looked healthy VS. Patrick Cote looked almost drugged 1st weight cut down to this weight
    Mike Ricci fighting in home town Tristar looked healthy Colin Fletcher weird vibe
    Nick Ring looked sick (but he always looks that way) vs. Chris Camozzi looked normal
    Jake Ellenberger looked motivated vs Nate Marquardt looked happy and energetic
    Condit looked good and normal in good shape vs. Hendricks energetic
    GSP vs. Diaz Looked normal

    BIGGEST WEIGH IN FADES:
    ROOP
    STORY
    RING
    COTE

    BEST OF LUCK BOYS!

    Yes, when I saw Story he seemed smaller and softer than I remember him being in fights against Hendricks and Thiago Alves...but maybe he looked the same at the weigh-ins for those fights

    Story is off the sauce.

    That's a HUUUUGE game changer. That's a 30-60% drop in strength plus the psychological edge is gone (that's fundamentally why Overeem lost his last fight against Silva).

    Here's the shot from 153:
    20121012022836_IMG_0231.JPG

    Another one from 2009 (he was really "peaking" back then muscle mass wise):
    Rick-Story.jpg

    This was today:

    20130315031837_IMG_4056.jpg

    He's about 2 or 3% bodyfat higher and that's his best bodybuilding pose. lol

    In this shot he looks even weaker:

    Roop always looks like a zombie. Guy looks like one leg kick could shatter him.

    I thought elkins looked quite a bit leaner than calvalho...but elkins is known for his grappling strength, persistance, and durability
    He's a bit taller than pato so maybe that's where the diff is. Elkin's rib cage also looked insanely drawn in, which I expect to fill back up by tonight

    Roop's energy seemed great to me, what do you mean when you say it seemed off?

    Armenian legs don't shatter. They're protected by a thick layer of hair.

    How does an Armenian drop weight classes?

    He shaves his arms.

    You're a pro home cook, don't sell yourself short.

    How old are you? I always thought you'd be anywhere from 28-34.

    Given Nunya's familiarity with MASK toys, it's short lived run on TV, and target demographic - I peg him at 33 - 38.

    Got a new range this week. Had 5 dishes cooking in the stove top and 2 going in the double oven at the same time last night.

    Felt like a penetrating BOSS!

    Use corn starch instead and put the steak in the freezer before grilling.
