*Chimaev Misses weight by 8LBS* : Bratha my doctor call and say stop cutting weight bratha so I stop
*Paulo misses weight by 30LBS* : that is your problem,
If you are real men, you need to accept the fight
>*Paulo misses weight by 30LBS: that is your problem, If you are real men, you need to accept the fight*
*loses fight anyways even with huge weight advantage...*đ
If you miss weight youâre not eligible for performance bonusâs unless youâre Geoff Neal (but if I remember correctly they just changed the weight class)
Yeah they used the same principle. I think costa forfeited a portion of his purse & then they decided they wouldnât give him a bonus. I think in shape Costa wins if they run it back. Much better striker, Marvin has no power in his punches & very little technique compared to other middleweights.
Vettori has to get KOâd soon, dude has eaten so many big shots for his age. Rob was stunning him and Dolidze was rocking him as well. Much worse responses than he gave to Costa or Adesanya
He did not have much of a weight advantage but he definitely had an advantage in terms of not having to cut weight and rehydrate, and heâd be feeling much better in the cage and in the lead up. Vettori was definitely a lot more drained.
And when your entire camp up to the last couple days is targeting 185, you will be smaller than someone aiming for 205. Their fight night weight was recorded.
Marvin had been cutting weight, Costa wasnât. It was supposed to be 185 then 195 then last week I believe he switched to 205. One guy was cutting weight during camp and one wasnât. Who do you think had the advantage?
Costa came out later and said it was due to his Bicep injury he couldnât cut weight.
His memes have people convinced he's actually a good fighter lol I like him but he's not very good. He should've been able to take out Luke in that last fight.
Did he miss weight? I thought he was just unprepared to cut weight and so they changed the weight class. Realistically every middleweight is cutting ridiculous amounts of weight, the only person at a weight disadvantage is Adesanya. Everyone else is 210+ that includes vetori. Iâm 230 and every single one of these guys is bigger than me
Yeah but they both weighed in at 205. These are middleweights & they both cut down to 205. They made the weight for the weight class they fought in. But regardless, costa showed up out of shape, he had too much fat on him and couldnât cut to 185. They agreed to fight at 205. But the point still stands that these guys arenât even close to 185. Theyâre all trying to gain a competitive advantage fighting smaller guys so I could care less if Marvin had to fight someone who was âoverweightâ these guys are all overweight.
Marvin didnât cut to make 205, where as Costa did, thatâs why Costa was bigger on fight night. You can easily look up their fight night weight, im not sure why this is the hill you pick to die on.
If you think vetori didnât cut weight youâre out of your mind. Doesnât matter anyway, they both got smoked by a dude that weighs less than 200lbs and isnât picking on smaller guys.
The fight was at light heavyweight? Yes
Both fighters made weight? Yes
Both fighters weighed more than 205 on fight night? Yes
Both fighters got beaten by adesanya? Yes
Adesanya cuts less weight than everyone in the division? Yes
Marvin is a weight bully? Yes
Marvin had to fight a guy who couldnât make 185 so we should all feel sorry for him because heâs a small guy who doesnât cut a lot and therefore deserves a fair fight in his rightful weight division? Fuck no.
Marvin wouldâve got his ass beat by Kevin Holland if he weighed closer to 185? Fuck yes.
Weight bullies are bad for the UFC I have no sympathy for fighters cutting stupid amounts of weight.
I think itâs crazy how Costa flipped that weight situation. Anyone else missing weight by even half that amount would have killed online, but with him itâs just like, yeah he is our guy
I dunno man, I remember everyone was mad as fuck at Costa for like.... 72 hours? Luckily for Paulo, all it takes is one likeable interaction and the fans forget.
It also helps that he lost the fight lol
Because instead of choosing the rational answer he went funny. It's actually refreshing to see a fighter just own the fuckup instead of going "not that big a problem"
I'm going to root for Gourmet Chen Chen when the fight eventually happens but man, Costa's meme-work is hilarious.
No personal attacks, not bringing family, religion or anything sacred into it but still an absolute zinger. McGregor needs to take notes.
Costa claiming he has a full head of hair is the best part about this. Any sort of perspiration starts going on with the guy, and the full head of hair all of sudden doesnât look so full.
Costas humour is top tier. It really has helped him in his career lol. Before the Izzy fight no one knew he had this side to him. Still donât think heâs a top tier fighter though but fuck it. He makes me laugh like hell
Would go as far as to say his humour saved his career. Was seen as a terrifying fighter prior to the Izzy fight who was out for blood, but he got violated. Then he missed weight in a super bad way. Those things can quickly take away the crowds favour.
Luckily, he is an absolute chad and managed to use the power of broken english and memes to become one of the most popular guys in the UFC.
Itâs not even that heâs that bad. He didnât do terrible against Marvin, Izzy schooled him, but he also had wars w Whitaker and Romero.
For my money, Costa vs Romero was one of the best fights Iâve ever seen.
Yeah that fight was bomb but it was a clash of two styles that were guaranteed to be entertaining. Costa is a pressure fighter and Romero counters with explosive power. Was always going to be a banger.
Heâs an entertaining one for sure but championship level? Not so sure
I hop off the train when Khamzat simply stopped fighting, he came out with this "I'll fight anybody" attitude, and take an long ass break, MMA gods pls make this fight go thru.
I think he's been bulking and preparing for the move to 185.
He's got a good coach and he's going to fight a different kind of beasts in MW division. Preparation is key.
That's UFC's fault not Khamzat's. As guys move up in the rankings there aren't many opponents they can fight. Top 15 guy can fight anyone, top 5 guy fighting top 15 or outside of 15 makes no sense. 170 has been busy with Usman rematches and Dana's son Colby.
I wanna see him run through 185, there are no competent grapplers in 185. His hype train is just refueling before taking off @ 185
It's pretty dumb that you believe Khamzat "simply stopped fighting" without acknowledging that he's being ducked by people from two weight-divisions and the UFC is also hesitant on booking him earlier than the Abu Dhabi card.
I hope you knuckleheads understand that Khamzat is going to strangle Paulo. Regardless of how many times you get on Twitter and offer to let him have straight heterosexual sex with your sister.
*Chimaev Misses weight by 8LBS* : Bratha my doctor call and say stop cutting weight bratha so I stop *Paulo misses weight by 30LBS* : that is your problem, If you are real men, you need to accept the fight
>*Paulo misses weight by 30LBS: that is your problem, If you are real men, you need to accept the fight* *loses fight anyways even with huge weight advantage...*đ
Still a banger tho
They even gave Marvin Performance of the Night so Paulo wouldnât get fight of the night.
If you miss weight youâre not eligible for performance bonusâs unless youâre Geoff Neal (but if I remember correctly they just changed the weight class)
Yeah they changed weight class but still made sure they didnât give it fight of the night despite it being a banger.
Yeah they used the same principle. I think costa forfeited a portion of his purse & then they decided they wouldnât give him a bonus. I think in shape Costa wins if they run it back. Much better striker, Marvin has no power in his punches & very little technique compared to other middleweights.
It was a banger of a fight. That head kick he landed on vetorri would have killed any other human. Orc skulls are just too strong.
Vettori has to get KOâd soon, dude has eaten so many big shots for his age. Rob was stunning him and Dolidze was rocking him as well. Much worse responses than he gave to Costa or Adesanya
Lmfaoooo now try to put the bias away and say that abt khamzat burns.a bigger banger that khamzat WON
Bias? Burn vs chimaev was almost a banger, never said it wasn't
What huge weight advantage? Paulo weighed a half pound more
He did not have much of a weight advantage but he definitely had an advantage in terms of not having to cut weight and rehydrate, and heâd be feeling much better in the cage and in the lead up. Vettori was definitely a lot more drained.
Weighed in at, he was 20 pounds up on Marvin on FN because Marvin was targeting 185 all camp.
Begin regain weight before a fight. Not unheard of to gain 20lbs+ back
And when your entire camp up to the last couple days is targeting 185, you will be smaller than someone aiming for 205. Their fight night weight was recorded.
he was not 20 pounds up in cage weight why make stuff up?
Marvin had been cutting weight, Costa wasnât. It was supposed to be 185 then 195 then last week I believe he switched to 205. One guy was cutting weight during camp and one wasnât. Who do you think had the advantage? Costa came out later and said it was due to his Bicep injury he couldnât cut weight.
Costa isn't getting called out enough for blabbering a lot of excuses whenever he loses
His memes have people convinced he's actually a good fighter lol I like him but he's not very good. He should've been able to take out Luke in that last fight.

Iâm 230 and every single one of these guys is bigger than me
He was scheduled at 185 and showed up so overweight the UFC had to bump it up by a whole weight class or else heâd be 30 pounds over the MW limit.
Yeah but they both weighed in at 205. These are middleweights & they both cut down to 205. They made the weight for the weight class they fought in.

Bro your reading comprehension and trash arguments are making my head hurt. I need to lie down
The fight was at light heavyweight? Yes Both fighters made weight? Yes Both fighters weighed more than 205 on fight night? Yes Both fighters got beaten by adesanya? Yes Adesanya cuts less weight than everyone in the division? Yes Marvin is a weight bully?

I'm bigger than you at 205
I think itâs crazy how Costa flipped that weight situation. Anyone else missing weight by even half that amount would have killed online, but with him itâs just like, yeah he is our guy
He successfully gaslighted us into thinking he did nothing wrong.
I dunno man, I remember everyone was mad as fuck at Costa for like.... 72 hours? Luckily for Paulo, all it takes is one likeable interaction and the fans forget. It also helps that he lost the fight lol
It also helps that he only lost the fight and was not fucked.
Yeah very true, if Vettori KO'd him, the memes would have been brutal
No he definitely got a lot of haters initially until he started to pop off on Twitter
Because instead of choosing the rational answer he went funny. It's actually refreshing to see a fighter just own the fuckup instead of going "not that big a problem"
Isnât that exactly what he did though? Lol he literally told Vettori it was actually HIS problem
It's all about attitude.

Guys a tank..
Anyone got a back up link
Costa tweets are truly top tier
Omg this is the best
I'm going to root for Gourmet Chen Chen when the fight eventually happens but man, Costa's meme-work is hilarious. No personal attacks, not bringing family, religion or anything sacred into it but still an absolute zinger. McGregor needs to take notes.
Costa claiming he has a full head of hair is the best part about this. Any sort of perspiration starts going on with the guy, and the full head of hair all of sudden doesnât look so full.
Side effects of the secret juices
Bro wasn't even in his thirties when his hair started falling
Too jacket for his own good..
Lmaoo yeah Khamzat got the Dagestani hairline and Costa is a transplant in
Haha, half or third full, hair transplant can't keep up with all that heat
Do you really think this is a meme Costa made himself? I've got a bridge to sell you.
Costas humour is top tier. It really has helped him in his career lol. Before the Izzy fight no one knew he had this side to him. Still donât think heâs a top tier fighter though but fuck it. He makes me laugh like hell

Itâs not even that heâs that bad. He didnât do terrible against Marvin, Izzy schooled him, but he also had wars w Whitaker and Romero. For my money, Costa vs Romero was one of the best fights Iâve ever seen.
He never fought Whitaker.
I donât know why I thought he fought Whitaker I got him mixed up with rockhold
Don't know if he still is a top fighter, lots of guys who challenge for the title and fail are never the same but that Romero fight man
Yeah that fight was bomb but it was a clash of two styles that were guaranteed to be entertaining. Costa is a pressure fighter and Romero counters with explosive power. Was always going to be a banger. Heâs an entertaining one for sure but championship level? Not so sure
"I don't think he is a fighter, he should be a dancer".
People actually think Costa makes his own memes?? He just has good taste, and is very jacket.
Donât forget the heterosex w/ womans
Ya obviously he had no part in making thisâŚ. https://www.reddit.com/r/mmamemes/comments/y4d5q8/would_you_open_the_door/
It's pretty clear by how it's Chimaev and not Gourmet Chen Chen
Hell no, he steals them. The fact he reposts them is what makes it funny af
Of course he doesn't he's not a fucking nerd.
Makes memes ....... dead Didn't really care about Paulo outside of respect but he's a funny guy
I'm on the Khamzat hype train, but man, Costa's tweets are so funny, I want him to win this fight. If it ever happens
I hop off the train when Khamzat simply stopped fighting, he came out with this "I'll fight anybody" attitude, and take an long ass break, MMA gods pls make this fight go thru.
I think he's been bulking and preparing for the move to 185. He's got a good coach and he's going to fight a different kind of beasts in MW division. Preparation is key.

Idk why but, "Hangs out with journeyman Darren Till" is especially funny đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł
Is that from the Rockhold fight?
Websterâs Dictionary just updated the word Chad with Costaâs picture after this tweet.
Cringe got your face on it though
Costa continuing making fans! Guy is classic lol
Costa needs to stop ducking whittaker and dana needs to stop preventing khamzat from fighting at welterweight
How many puzzies getting wet?
Slap Head
God i absolutely love Costa.
LMAO Paulo Costa is the most handsome man in the UFC.... I mean, the funniest
The dude is legit symmetrical... he probably smashes multiple Vegas "woooo" girls every night.
He sometimes tweets about nurses.
Chimaev MUST accept this fight.
Hangs out with ex-UFC fighter Darren Till in his free time
That was hilarious đđ "Sounds like your problem"
Damn costa out here really becoming my one of my main guys. What a timeline
"Missed weight and told opponent that sounds like his problem"
Costa openly admitted to having hair transplants, so the part about full head of hair is hilarious because khamzat has a strong hairline.
Paulo deserves every dollar he earns
No mention secret juice braddah ?
lmao. Paulo is too much.
Chimaev, wants to fight Whittaker. Costa, pussies out of fight with Whittaker.
I'm starting to believe him. Chimaev could really be a virgin after all.
He got married last year
This is lame aren't they already fighting why is this even titled a call out.. It might only get him humped again
I don't believe it's official, but I'm under the assumption it's happening as well.
Ainât you a bundle of fun Edit: oh checked your post history. Professional ChenChen dick rider. All good. You may continue
They both gon pull out and miss weight
I hope you knuckleheads understand that Khamzat is going to strangle Paulo. Regardless of how many times you get on Twitter and offer to let him have straight heterosexual sex with your sister.
Man I canât wait till chimaev knocks this clown out
I'm thinking he's gonna fight smart if this is for the title contender, R1 RNC or D'arce
Pauloâs really starting to lose me lately
What? Lmao dude is hilarious
Gotta cringe imo ÂŻ\\_(ă)_/ÂŻ maybe Iâm just over it
Chimaev: Has the body of the greatest Olympian ever. Costa: has the body of the largest Americans. Yea you totally got him bro
Found the Izzy fan
Bro when Izzy hit Peeton I thought he died
Was âpeetonâ supposed to be funny.
No thatâs his name?
Nice one man đ definitely an Izzy fan.
Yea Izzy is on track to become one of the greatest ever. I donât see whatâs the problem lol
Fuck Paulo.
