Sultan 219...Wlad 238!!!!

I thought the same thing....if he or his camp are having any problems now is the time to bring it up, we're not gonna want to hear it afterward in the very unlikely event he were to loose. Hopefully it was planned move to help keep up with the little guy.

That doesnt sound good. I don't think Wladdys been below 240 in years...
Theres also a possibility of over-training....

I think that's more the case for fighters who get out of shape between bouts.


I think Wlad may have just eased off any kind of power training he was doing and focused on stamina and mobility

It does seem a little strange when you consider that Wlad has always been by far the best conditioned heavyweight in the world.

He must have lost some muscle mass as I doubt he had an extra 5 lbs of fat to lose, he's always completely ripped.
