    A guy cutting weight should not be eating Mars bar brownies that close to a weigh in.

    No one should ever be eating mars bar brownies.

    If he can healthily make 155 then go for it. Otherwise waiting it out for 165 is the way to go.

    But they're really tasty, and I wasn't in fight camp. I swear ðŸ˜

    Was there last night. Good night of fights. Not a whole lot of finishes. Some strange endings/decisions and home town fighters losing kind of dampened the mood in the arena I felt.

    As an aside, the bar staff in the O2 are by far the most gormless, useless lazy shower of gob****es. Any bar I was at seemed to be full of the same vacant eyed morons moving at a snails pace.

    The whole thing was a shambles. Slowly pulling pints as they are ordered. Have them pre pulled and ready to go like at any festival etc queues were a disgrace.

    The worst, bad enough your paying £7 for a pint. The pints were pre-pulled they were just so slow. None of them ever worked in a bar with the pace they were moving at. Really pissed me off, spent way too much time in q's.

    Could you just not have bothered with more pints after the first experience was so shït?

    I like beer though and I have a drinking problem.

    The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

    Edwards 7 wins since his last loss to the current champion. Gunnar will never break the top 10 at 170 imo only guy he would beat is Santiago in a rematch where eyepokes aren't allowed.

    Last Saturday was a tough night against a strong opponent, @gamebredfighter
    Fight game is a tough one.
    Few things need refocusing now, feel like I lost me self the past year & haven’t been fully focused to my craft!
    I’ve had a week in this amazing place Canada to revitalise with my thoughts!
    I’ll be back a different animal, @teamkaobon is still the best coach & person in this world & we will dominate for years to come.
    Can not wait to be back at the gym Monday evolving and focusing like never before. I owe it to myself!
    Peace mother****ers
    @gymshark F LIFe 🦍

    That's a bit unfair about a very decent/reasonable post-fight statement

    "Few things need refocusing now, feel like I lost me self the past year & haven’t been fully focused to my craft!"

    World title fight for the belt against Woodley back in and he posting that rubbish above. Wasn't fully focused LOL

    Still couldn't get himself right for the Masvidal fight despite he talking rubbish pre fight.

    :confused: - The hatred running through your veins for him is something else.

    What would you have said as a fighter in the same situation?

    I don't care about Darren Till either way but I do dislike those types of statements, it's like trying to partly pin a loss on some external factor or variable rather than just accept that the better fighter won on the night and afford him the credit deserved.

    Be more genuine to just say something like "Last Saturday was tough....Masvidal is a strong and legendary fighter.....time now to refocus on my craft and get my head back in the game...learn from defeat and come back stronger and better than ever", etc.

    In fact if he'd just left out that 3rd line it'd be grand really. He mentions evolving and refocusing later down the statement anyway.

    This is a great vid - some nice details of the gamesmanship on the night. Masvidal blowing a kiss Till's way after he misses with his signature left is fairly gangster.
