Charles Oliveira’s intense weight cut draws attention from the fans

34-year-old Charles Oliveira is without a doubt one of the most conditioned athletes in the UFC. The Brazilian stays in shape year round which allows him to make weight before his fight. Very rarely does the former champion fail to make weight in the lightweight division. According to his coach, he walks in around 176-180 pounds during his off season, which makes it easy to lose the 25 pounds. However, losing those extra pounds is not an easy process. A recent video posted by Combat Talk on Instagram gave the fans an insight into the weight-cutting process of Oliveira.

The fans looked absolutely stunned by the video and shared their opinions. Let us take a look at some comments below.

One user pointed out the hard work put in by every fighter in the UFC and commented:

“For those who cry “weight bully” each of these fighters in their respective division does this.”

Another user pointed out the problems faced by the fighters after the weight cut :

“This is how fighters get brain damage”

One user mentioned how every weight is tough on the bodies of the fighters:

“Every weight cut seems tough tbh”

Another user tried to point out the bonus angle before the UFC 300 fight :

“He heard that $300K and said I’m not missing this one!”

Another user commented:

“They say this all the time bout my guy”

One user pointed the one thing he hates about this sport and commented:

“Most ridiculous part of the sport !”

One fan seemed to have a completely different take on the weight cut :

” He actually looks ok, just miserable”
