UFC 171 Results

I think Georges was right regarding his recent statements about the need for better drug testing.I believe there may be some behind the scenes chats going on with the fighters.Hendricks did not seem to have anywhere near the power he was displaying recently.Hector Lombard carries a ridiculous amount of muscle mass for a 170 pounder,his walking around weight must be well over 200.His strength advantage over Jake Shields made it very obvious one fighter was in the super stock category.Same for Woodley.My bet is that if either of these fighters get in line for a title shot they will enter the ring looking far less formidable.

Part of the reason I mention these guys has to do with photo evidence.Photos of Lombard and Jacare Souza,who recently defeated Francis Carmont out of the Tristar gym,show a very large swing in size and muscularity......

Hendricks definitely was down in muscle as well as total power. I just dont got what Lawler through in the towel I mean this was a title fight...this is when you dig deep....pretty sad IMO.

I will say that Lombard,from the weigh in photo,appears to have done his work dieting.Shields was just a kid compared to Lombard,Shields defeated Woodley previously.Lombard could be champion before the year is out,if he can maintain his fitness level....no wonder Georges got out.
