He hasn't been living the life required to be an athlete at the top of his game I still think he'll win but I just have doubts now. I know this is subjective but to me he just doesn't look anywhere near the same athlete he was before. I watched the Siver fight again recently and the shape he was in was incredible. Like a flexible piece of iron for lack of a better description. Contrast that to the Khabib fight and whilst he was in shape he just didn't look close to the athlete he was v Siver and Aldo etc. He looks older than he should too which is not surprising given the binge lifestyle he's been leading. Hope I'm wrong as I'd love to see him get back to the level he was as he was just incredible to watch in his prime. By all accounts, that incident in the bar was a real eye opener for him but that could be nonsense as its just second hand info. Anyway, I think and hope we will see a return to the more witty, non gangster imitation in the build up to this one. I wonder if the purse is still going to charity.

Look, I want to see him winning, but honestly think even he'd be more competitive against Khabib at 155 than Jorge at 170. Unpopular opinion, I'd imagine. Jorge is more experienced, good grappler, bigger, superior kicker, boxing at least on par if not better etc.
