Does the weight cut affect Pereira’s chin?

[Maori]

Another rough weight cut for Poatan judging by his youtube. Rumours had it he was moving up.

I think his chin will thank him for it, thoughts?

 

[You Will Vote For Dreyga]

Yes of course

How could it not?

 

[ExitLUPin]

If he beat Izzy again I think he wouldve vacated and moved up. He turns 36 in a few months. Weightcut will only get harder.

 

[Snolla]

I cut 40lb for my last fight. Can confirm it's a bad idea.

 

[andrikkis7]

I believe Izzy's right hand affected Alex's chin

 

[Evangelion]

Duh

 

[kibz]

Either way he got caught. Izzy has always been a precise sniper.

 

[RockyLockridge]

His chin has always been sussy.

 

[CatchtheseHands]

Yes. I think after they do their trilogy fight, win or lose Alex needs to move up. There's really no point in him being at this weight any longer. There's no good match ups for him there unlike at 205 where he has Jiri, Hill, Jan, Khalil and other strikers he can fight that would be bangers. 185 got too many wrestlers.

 

[sdpdude9]

No way it helps.

 

[DrunkMonkMeth]

He didnt punch him in the chin

 

[Hog-train]

No because Izzy rocked him in their first MMA match in the same exact way. And also rocked him in their 2nd kickboxing match. Izzy can rock Periera and vice versa.

 

[TheBulge]

Not only for his chin but his endurance would improve a lot too. He should defnitely move up.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

dude i used to cut less than 10 lbs in wrestling back when i was younger, that shit sucked major ass. couldn't even imagine cutting 40+ pounds as a grown ass man and fighting at this stage. he needs to move up, LHW is open, just needs to work on wrestling defense and he's gold.

 

[BetoG695]

its the way he keeps his hands down and has no head movement

 

[Carl25]

This is encapsulates Pereira's posture during a fight

 

[sssleeper]

The weight cut plus a lifetime of combat sports at 35yo

 

[Laheys'Liquorland]

Punches to the head don't help.
