I mean, if you were the UFC can you trust him, he will show up to fight?
its a risk with four pull outs the last 24 months.
Chris doesn't pull out that much. I mean, the guy has 3 kids for fucks sake.
Big EP -Ha!Chris doesn't pull out that much. I mean, the guy has 3 kids for fucks sake.
Nope. He'll be back. And I'm betting he comes back strong. 
Fabes - Nope. He'll be back. And I'm betting he comes back strong.
iron rods?
He will be back
No. He's not done. He's quite young. So I think he'll keep fighting.
Rockhold, Weidman and Jacare really seem to have separated themselves from the rest of the pack.

Romero is right in there with them..he could beat Weidman i know but tough fight against Rockhold
Honestly wasn't excited about this fight at all. Sucks he's injured but cool we'll see a different fight

SporkChop - I just rewatched his fight with rockhold and saw how gassed he was; his lack of cardio lost him that fight for the most part, IMO.Didn't he break his foot leading up to the fight? Kinda hard to do cardio with a broken foot.
I think that his problem is that he doesn't do enough real cardio. It could be because he lives in New York and trains under the tutelage of a fat man in Ray Longo.

I agree, his cardio was bad. Cardio in mma is bad in general. Very few guys run like all boxers do in their training and I think it's a big mistake. The little bit of strength you lose matters far less in most fights compared to having a cardio advantage over your opponent.
MMA is just more cardio intensive. Look at James Toney fighting when he was a blown up cruiserweight, he was always relaxed in the ring and knew how to take breaks. Much harder to take breaks in MMA.
He's pulled out more than any other champ I think. Since becoming champ, he's pulled out something like 5 times in 4 or 5 fights.
