Hendo Trolls DC With A Huge Order Of Popeye’s During Weight Cut

Articles


The fighters on the card for UFC 173 have touched down in Las Vegas for fight week. TJ Dillashaw can be seen working on his gloves on the plane, in the airport, even while riding the baggage claim. Renan is relaxing after the flight. Fight week means something entirely different for wrestlers like Cormier and Henderson, however. It means cutting weight.




“All day yesterday, Daniel was talking about Popeye’s chicken, how he loves it and he can’t wait to eat it after the fight so I wanted to help his weight cut out a little bit and got him some Popeye’s chicken today.” said the former champion, Dan Henderson, about his upcoming opponent.

Olympian Daniel Cormer is the favorite to win this fight and to keep his undefeated streak going. Fans were most recently looking forward to seeing Cormier against Rashad Evans but instead Cormier’s gotten a slightly easier path with Pat “Patrick” Cummins and Daniel Cormier. That’s not to take anything away from Hendo, but there’s never been a better time to fight him as he’s definitely on the other side of his prime. None the less, all it takes is one punch to put a guy down as Hendo has shown us time and time again.

The really crazy thing is seeing Hendo weighing in at only 196. He’s 9 pounds under weight going up against a former heavyweight. This will be an interesting fight. Check out the video below for some behind the scenes action, including a very special delivery from Hendo to DC. Clearly Dan isn’t worried about his weight for this fight, and he’ll take any edge he can get.
