How does Herring make 130?

Herring says he walks around at 144 pounds. So that's a hard cut, but not extreme or abnormal.

 

His fight night weights were impressive when he was younger.

 

Don't be silly.

There's rules, and then there's boiling down 3 weightclasses below what should be the division you should be campaigning in.

Frampton has been done for time, so it's not that angle for me.

 

True, but that's usually when you've stayed there forever. Not like last night.

 

Herring is a rare case where moving down in weight works. And dude moved down in weight at 32.
And hes not a big guy it seems. Sure, he dwarfed Frampton, but Frampton is a leprechaun.

 

Have you seen his beautiful wife?

That's enough right there to shed a few pounds on the regular

 

He's just not cutting weight anymore.

He probably rehydrates to the same levels now as before (upper 170s) but is just much healthier because he has not punished his body to cut weight anymore.

Against Kovalev, in the ring, he was 179lbs.

 

Herring is only an average sized 130lber. He comes in at like 140 or less. Weighs much the same as his opponents in the ring.

Skinny people exist.

 

Frampton never had a chance, he literally looked 2 divisions smaller

 

They need to go back to day of the fight weigh in's. I'm tired of seeing a guy fight for the 160 strap weighing 180

 

The size discrepancy between Herring and Frampton was profound.

 

hes smart like mma fighters and properly cuts weight
