Th13een asked for official.
Ya, I was the first one to bring that up.
Props to you.
I suspect Thirteen was asking what the scale said, not what the commission called out.
94k my friend.
Either way, we'll never know unless this makes it to court.
A lot of people seem to forget that Dan Miller also came in over weight. The official called 172, same deal could have been anywhere between that and 172.9. He dropped his boxers, the officials called 171, same deal again. I've tried to read DW's lips because he started laughing, I'd like to think he said, those are some heavy shorts, lol, we'll never know. I've wondered how they (his boxers) could weigh a pound exactly, but if they're wet I guess it's possible.
Either way if GSP did way 170 or 170.9 it doesn't matter on the resul of the fight it would of been the same. Let alone if he was told he wayed 170.9 he could have dropped his shorts and re-weighed and also would have had alittle extra time to make the weight. Either way it isn't GSP's fault. This is just Diaz trying to talk his way back into a rematch like he did in the first place but this time it ain't gonna work
The video says they are not going to count anything after the decimal... so if he weighed 170.5 it was going to be called as 170. That alone is a joke. If they want to give a pound over then fine... but don't lie about their weight. If its 170.8 and they're allowed 171 then why not call it 170.8?
Its evident you don't understand the topic being discussed... so pointless continuing.
Hey, I never said he'd WIN
I never said anything about a rematch.
Nice try tho.....
That is the remedy being sought by Diaz's lawyer.
LOL that's comical.
Probably have better luck trying to get 20% of GSP's purse....
His shorts don't weigh a pound, bro. And yes, this IS the fighters fault for not coming in at weight. Ultimately the AC let it slide, but had this taken place in the U.S. it would have been a bigger deal, and GSP would have been given the customary time to drop the necessary weight and weigh in again.
^^ Is there any evidence anywhere that says GSP weighed in at more than 170?
I have seen zero; so far this is all a manufactured issue based on what some guy not from QAC told Diaz about what the QAC was going to do, with no evidence that the QAC actually did any of it.
TS, all you had to do type is " Diaz Camp," and most Of the junkie nation would assume that it was going to be stupidity.
Ricci, Miller, Hendricks, and Marquardt all might have been over as well.
When the watch dogs arent properly enforcing the rules, its a problem. I am not surprised. Nobody has ever been popped in Quebec so w/e. Its sketchy as hell.
Its not stupidness of the Diaz camp, dont shoot the messenger. As luke thomas said, its about the commission getting caught cutting a corner and defending it publicly without any regulatory dockets.....its insane.
Many just see Diaz and GSP and go from there without actually thinking about what you are saying though. I don't necessarily side with anyone here and kind of have a sit back approach, but it's very interesting and potentially shady to say the least.
I feel like Diaz just wants to be able to physically wear a belt. I wonder if Chael has any extra replica belts?
