Rampage got fat again.... (144 weigh-ins video)

Yeh I saw this live yesterday (streaming ofcourse) and I don't know why.... I always take it personally when Main event/Co-Main event fighters don't make weight ...... lol...

Me personally, I feel it really spoils the fight and the build up to it.

-Travis Lutter
-Paulo Filho
-Thiago Alves
-Anthony Johnson
-Rampage

I just dont' think he just doesn't take fighting seriously anymore

He looked fat at the fight. That's the first thing I noticed.

Fat, slow and just looked like shit. He looked good when he fought against Jones (as good as you can by taking a beating from him) but he looked like complete trash against Bader. I just can't get excited to see Rampage fight anymore.... Mark Hunt on the other hand lol

Yeah I just don't think he cares anymore, so neither do I.

For all the talking he did leading up this fight about how excited he was to come back to Japan and put on a great show for those fans, the last thing I expected was for him to badly miss weight and show up to the fight with a gut and titties.

lmao ! Hell yeh!

Rampage showed up to collect his $200 000, paid $50 000 for his extra cheese burger and went home happy.

Fuck the UFC ... Fuck Dana ... Fuck the fans...

Rampage got his payday, he's not an MMA artist... he's not a "street fighter" .... Rampage is and always will be just a thief.

Strikeforce isn't even the answer...

Nah, he wanted to fight for the fans in this fight. He loves Japan.
I definitely think he's lazy, but the mental drive was there for this fight. The problem is that he thought he could just keep telling himself that he was going to do great, and forgot that for that to actually happen, you need to be in shape.

But now he'll probably just go back to fighting for paychecks like he did before this fight.

I know this is going to be a frowned upon statement, but I have no idea how he ever beat Chuck Lidell...I think he was in Chuck's head and that's it. He hasn't looked good since then.

I actually agree with you, and thought the same thing at the time of the fight.

Because of the way Chuck fights (fought), someone was gonna put his lights out eventually anyway, but I think he already mentally lost to Rampage before the fight even started. I had never seen Chuck fight so skittish as he did in that fight.

Agree with this completely!
