anyone who has ever cuts weight knows that water is the first thing on your mind. You don't appreciate how great water is untill you've had a really tough weight cut. Nothing out of the ordinary by sherk or penn by grabbing their water immediately

I would imagine that a lot of the fighters get IV's after the weight ins. Hell I give them to myself for a hangover cure.

It stands for "intravenous", specifically "intravenous therapy".

I don't where this speculation and rumour shit started but watch the interviews after the weigh-ins.. watch the press conferences.. BJ LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME AS HE HAS LOOKED IN HIS PAST 2 FIGHTS, perhaps in even better shape.

People always say oh he looks scared oh look at the way he is moving his arm???!?!?! You guys overanalyze the shit out of things, these are all things penn has done his entire career in interviews, just little personality ticks before fight time.

He is a violent violent person who is extremely good at hurting people. Do not expect him to act normal 2 days before one of the biggets fights of his career.

PS some fighters use IV's to rehydrate and just for health reasons. You don't have to by dying of cancer to use an IV, probably an option his team had opted for. Not like he came in heavy either?

how would you know if he had a tuff weight cut? the dude looked like he did against stevenson,only more determined and focused cause he knew he could walk thru stevenson but sherk is no joke. i think homeboy wants this more than anything.
