Jiji Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Poor John Lineker and his 33 and a third pound head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share Posted September 30, 2016 It's crazy that Lineker may be the first person not to receive a title shot in two separate weight classes because of weight issues. In each case, he probably would have deserved them. With the depth at bantamweight, can you give someone like Lineker a fight with Garbrandt? Because the winner is pretty much the number 1 contender. Same thing if he has to fight Dillashaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I hope so. Which gym is he with? Does he have a good nutritionist? His frame doesn't look like it should be missing weight at 135 compared to other top bantamweights. At least now he's only missing by half of a pound.

He is supposedly with ATT and OCS BJJ (a gym in his hometown of Paranagua). However, I only see social media stuff with him at the latter instead of both. It's crazy that he joined American Top Team a little over three years ago now. That seems like it only happened maybe a year and a half ago at the most.

Elsalvajeloco Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 Marquardt did the walkoff and Big John didn't make him continue. Yeah, Roy made a bad decision last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliveira is a good guy, Will is known for constant trash talking. I have no issues of Cowboy getting emotional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still doesn't give Will a pass for talking shit and allegedly talking about his mother. Like Woodley said on the post show we expect guys to talk a lot of shit before the fight but expect them to be nice to each other after the fight. Sometimes it will not work out that way. Brooks is known for trash talk. He has no right to talk because he has looked average so far in the Ufc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
