I was looking at a thread in the non-stop boxing section, and someone said that GSP drops 30 pounds of weight to get to 170.

Is this true? I thought GSP didn't drop much weight before a fight. Which is why he has so much stamina during his fights.

i read that when he's not training he walks around 195

that doesn't mean he's cutting from 195

he has gone up as high as 195 but he usually hovers around 185.

ok, 15 pounds, that ain't to bad. Just the way the person made it sound. He would dehydrate from 200 to 170 to fight. I had a hard time believing this.

GSP right now is walking around at 195.

Before he walked around and came in on fight night weighing between 184-187. So he really doesn't cut anywhere near 30lbs.

But he's bulking now for a potential fight down the road against Silva.

I could find out what his weight is right now if you like. The tristar gym is less than 3 minutes from my house by car.

I was planning to get in shape for the summer anyway. Might do some boxing there because its the closest place for boxing training to my house. If I see him, I'll try and remember to ask him what his weight is.

GSP trains so hard i don't think cutting weight is a problem for him, he's probably burning 2-3 lbs of calories a day when he trains. i doubt he's dehydrating himself to make weight, i think he leans down gradually in the two weeks before each fight

GSP cuts down from about 187-188 lbs, he doesn't believe in cutting huge amounts of weight because he believes it can shorten your career

I was the one who posted that in NSB.


According to Ed Soares, he's bulked up a bit after the groin injury and is walking around at around 195.


Its a huge cut to make 170, but I think the craziest weight cut has got to be Rumble Johnson's. He is just massive, and I have met him in person, and I just can't imagine how he could be any lighter than 215 in between fights.

17-18 pounds is alot,and I wouldn't be surprised if he cuts down from a higher weight than that.

You just have to look at him against Thiago Alves.Alves is notorious for cutting down and putting on alot of weight coming into the fight,and he looked small compared to Georges St.Pierre.


St.Pierre is afraid to move up a weight class and challenge himself.He knows that he has a weak chin,as shown when a lown up lightweight midget knocked him out.

You hate mma or mmgay as you like to call it yet you seem to know alot about it donkim :/ . Your a closet fan :D

No he didn't, he is shorter but absolutely weighed more than GSP in their fight.

When comparing height, yes, he was smaller. When looking at muscle mass, Thiago was much bigger.

On subject though, i believe GSP cuts about 15-17 pounds to make weight. He walks around 195 from what i understand but when in shape is about 183-185 from what i hear.

don't forget gleison tibau, he cuts down to 155 from 187 which is ridiculous

I thought GSP stays lean all year round, I think it's only recently that hes weighed 195 after putting on muscle to move up to MW

rumble cuts down from 230 lbs like anderson silva. dropping 60 lbs for each fight is just unhealthy, eventually, rumble will have to move up to 185, or more likely 205. alves is famous for cutting alot of weight too, i heard he walks around at over 200lbs, probably 205 or 210, that's why he needs a diuretic to cut weight, he has to piss out a lot of water to make 170. both these guys should be fighting at higher weights

the guy's 5'10'' (same height as GSP), fights at 155 and looks like this

lol wasn't his name like princemanpooper or some shiz before? but yeah he definitely is, he's like that hs kid who blows off his friends when he's trying to fit in with the cool kids (ex: boxing elitists).

Some shiz? You're not on a hip hop forum,you're on my forum lad.

I don't need to explain myself to you or anybody else.It's amazing that your kind have such an intense dislike towards boxing and it's fans and yet your signed up on a forum dedicated to boxing.


Back to sherdog with you lad.

Um no you ****ing tard. I hate boxing ELITISTS! Aka you (even if you are an undercover mma lover). Obviously I'm on this board for a reason which you seem to have come across yet decided wrongly that it wasn't why I'm here, so don't assume. I say shiz you dumbass so I can refrain from posting the full word, apparently thats too complex your deluded and obviously confused mind. Figure out what camp your in, Boxing Elitists, Fan of Both Sports, or MMA Snob then talk to me.

Back to your room to think child.

Hey Poppa what is your sherdog username ? ( its clear you have one dont try to deny it . ) .

GSP more than likely walks around 200. If Dan Hardy walks around 202lbs. GSP, whom appears bigger, should walk around more.

Unless of course GSP, himself, says that he walks around at a lower weight.

St. Pierre says he previously walked around close to 185, now he is walking around at 193.

People really over-estimate the guys weight.

I've met him IRL and standing next to him, he doesn't even look like he works out.

I was close. Around 200lbs.

GSP is real lean though. In the suit, you can't even tell he is a fighter. GSP has awesome physique though. I got it about right though, Hardy said he was 202. So I figured GSP was around the same weight.

and the guy thinks silva is too big for him. he just knows silva is the better fighter and wants to keep up his fake image. he reminds be of de la hoya

You're on this board to cause trouble and nothing else.Obviously you and a few other insecure children from sherog see it fit to try and disrupt one of the biggest boxing forums on the internet.

It's not difficult to use one of these *

Try using that next time rather than resorting top hip hop language.

Lol I applaud your attempt to deflect the negative light off yourself and discredit me in a casual fashion. It is laughable though as you were the person to engage me in conversation in a negative fashion (not here but on the board previously), which you may or may not deny. You chose to discredit me by citing my intentions are to disrupt this board when you yourself is know to be a person of that very nature, flooding this board with your anti-mma remarks such as "mmgay" and be such. Yet you display a seemingly contradictory mindset in some occasion leading me and various members to believe you are indeed a closet fan. Next time review your thoughts before posting as it only furthers the notion you are a confused idiot who's intentions are to seek attention and flame a sport that we can seemingly assume you enjoy (through your random displays of knowledge in the sport). That's all for now and I look forward to your pointless and demeaning retort I am almost certain you will post. I am a fan, you are an idiot.
