Gomis all but certainly stopped cutting guys. Hes clearly just sick. He likely showed up and tried to push through but couldn't do it. He's a pretty slender guy and doesn't need to cut much. He likely stopped cutting awhile ago and the sickness took the rest off.

I agree shame on his team for letting him get up there like that but sometimes it's on the fighter too. If Gomis really needed even just his show money that's probably all that mattered to him. His team needs to look out for him though and tell him to pick his battles better. I give him props for showing up and trying to push through but he's clearly in no condition to fight. Glad it's canceled.

Nah Gomis thought he would get 20% of the opponents purse if he weighed under 😂

It remains to be seen if I only lost $5 from cashing out rather than waiting for fight to get cancelled or if my parlay with Jean Silva is converted to a single bet as well. I managed to turn that situation to the worst possible outcome, didn't I? 😭😭

Now that Gomis is off the card Aldo takes his place as worst looking fighter on the scale.

I was wondering why everyone was picking Gomis, they obviously have not seen silva fight. He threw up softer weigh ins while cutting more weight then needed.

I honestly don't understand how Potieria is supposed to be a step up from Oleksiejczuk, but I guess it ain't supposed to matter I suppose.
