Khabib vs tony ufc209 cancelled

[ESFitness]

Khabib "fell ill" cutting weight this morning. Ufc docs scrapped it.

[Twaddle]

IE, he knew he wasn't going to make weight, so he faked an illness.   

[ratherbebig]

fuck that idiot. cant make weight? then get the fuck out

[Twaddle]

I think that he made weight. So whatever happened, it was after the weigh-in

He never weighed in, went to hospital, later released, unfit to compete, etc.  Again, couldn't make weight, and this is a bullshit story to cover it.

One of 2017’s most anticipated fights has been canned.

The UFC 209 co-feature will not take place as Khabib Nurmagomedov did not weigh-in and was deemed medically unfit to compete against Tony Ferguson.

Rumors swirled early Friday that Nurmagomedov had been hospitalized due to a tough weight cut. Ultimate Fighting Championship officials later confirmed that Nurmagomedov had been released from the hospital but was not cleared to take the scale.

Lost a lot of interest in the card after that... was going to be an entertaining scrap. Hunt vs Overeem and Woodley vs Thompson is still pretty good though.

bunch of drugged up guys rolling around in the 'cage' to a crowd of drunken trailer trash

they should be fighting at walking weight anyways

fuck this early weigh in horseshit

Never got that either.  Walk onto the scale then onto the mat.

[dseiler]

The first Woodley V Thompson was a war. If this one is half as good it's worth the price.

Yes, they should be weighing in on the day of the fight.

And be the exact weight they're supposed to be in their weight class.

[Jamaal]

Apparently he was over by 6lbs and his body failed. He went to the hospital without notifying the UFC - if he did, supposedly the card could be saved.

[The Wizard of Truth]

Khabib has NEVER made 155lbs, always 156. This being interim champ fight he would've had to make 155. He's fucked now, I guarantee he will never get close to a title shot again at lightweight. Dana is well pissed.

He looked sharp and quick at the open workouts

[oldschoolfan]

khadweeb had lost out on alot of money the past few years, he is always injured. bro probably will have a short career

[Jamaal]

Which will only get shorter now, especially as McGregor wanted nothing to do with him

how can you not make weight?



when you are 15% bodyfat?

running scared of toney

[honest]

when you can't make weight you should automatically drop out of the rankings, he should have to make weight and fight at least three times before he gets a shot again. Or they should automatically only be contracted to fight in the next weight division up, a lot of people won't buy that card now, woodley thompson first fight was crap, its just been rehyped, woodley winning was bad for business he's not that entertaining in comparison to Lawler etc, he's boring.

[ratherbebig]

shitty show

not sure why anyone wanna see either tyrone of thompson ever again

they usually attempt the one day weight cut which is basically not eating and taking laxatives 24 hours prior to weigh in

I knew a powerlifter who did this and he went from 237 to 220 n less than 24 hours

Rather lackluster main event no matter how much Rogan tries to apologize for it.

The Overeem kayo over Hunt was pretty satisfying though.

[Jamaal]

Thompson should be the champ right now
