Could Gilbert Melendez make 145lbs?

He won't be at his best.

 

BTW, Guida dropped to 145 !

Isn't he fighting the Hatsu Hioki next ?

 

Guida/Melendez rematch at 145.

 

if he gets lost a sea & spends a couple of weeks on a deserted island, im shure that at some point hel be even below 145

 

I don't know, but it seems like a bunch of bull**** to me. I'm not part of a team, so forgive, but I believe he is being pressured into this.

The man hasn't made the FW Limit in 5 years, and to cut is ****ing foolish. I'd rather have him firing on all cylinders than be less of a fighter! Ross Pearson and Kenny Florian found this out the hard way, when will the rest of The Mixed Martial Arts World take note?

 

It all comes down to how he looks on fight night, we shall see!

 

Ive been saying for 2 years Melendez is a FW

His body fat percentage is too high, and yes as long as the weight comes off the right way he'll be a force there

I personally think Aldo will fight @55 in 2013 though

 

If he beats Edgar in Jose Aldo fashion and decides the cut is too harsh and moves up, he'll probably be granted Henderson/Diaz and rightly so!

If Frankie beats him, and IMHO its not that big of an IF then like you say, wide open!

I do believe Gil Melendez is a FW and this is based purely on his body fat percentage come fight night, that said he walks around pretty big im told (170+ something like that?) so it could be a lengthy process withering down that frame, and he probably wont be at his best during his first outing at 45, or maybe he will and my suspicion is right, he's a class fighter, very skilled and strategically so smart and crafty, he's a world class fighter! it will be good to see him in what i believe is his true weight class against the best in the world :deal

:good

 

Where you at Gil!?

Donde esta? Don't be scared homie.

 

Melendez and Henderson is the fight I've been wanting to see for a while now.

I've posted it before. I don't care if Henderson is champion or not. I wouldn't have cared whether or not Melendez defeated Healy. I just want to see these guys go at it.

 

^^Likewise, was Melendez v Healy rescheduled?

 

Melendez/Alvarez is the fight I've wanted to see forever.
