  2. rh2117 says:

    anybody know why its at 205 and not 185?

    • punkbz says:

      i think it is at 185 these reporters dont know what they are talking about

      • cachorro louco 420 says:

        it is at 205 because wanderlei didn’t like making the cut and not being able to eat like he wanted. not sure if stann is moving up just for this fight or back at 205 for good.

  3. sarge says:

    I think Wanderlei is looking old…he still has a punchers chance and it’s sad to think that way when he was the baddest man on the planet not too many years back…father time is cruel to us all
