@vrooooooooooooooooooom At that point during a weight cut you don't really care about calories that much because you're trying to get rid of water weight in the body and alchohol dehydrates the body a lot so no matter how much wine he drank he is still going to lose weight due to dehydration from the alchohol consumption.
@@vrooooooooooooooooooomfighters burn so many calories in training the caloric value on specific things isn’t that specific but yeah during the normal weight cut he probably doesn’t do it consistently
@@vetzaaakit worked until it didn’t I guess lol he was undefeated at one point in the ufc. Got a title shot and got knocked tf out. Maybe had too much juice lol
@@windytv7511Casuals always knock fighters for not becoming champ, I like when people give credit for being close to grabbing the belt. That in itself is an incredible feat, let alone being a high ranked UFC fighter.
Arrogance***** he can back it up at least but the god complex is a little much, bro genuinely thinks he’s untouchable as if he’s not just a greasy meat sack.
**Fun Fact** Alcohol is a diuretic, so in reality you lose a lot more water weight prior to the weigh in if you time it right. At the same time your body is not able to stack on the calories gained from the alcohol till after the weigh in, so the calories (~7cal per gram) are actually converted to fat (if not utilised) providing extra fuel for the fight and providing a little bit of size too. Some may see this as a "cheat code", though in reality it's all about timing and weighing out pros and cons, since ethanol is also carcinogenic.
Other athletes don't lose anything other than water on any other diet. They call it dehydration, not weight loss. Sports don't always mean healthy behavior.
Doesn’t alcohol have a tendency to make the body retain water weight? I’m not arguing, it just seems like you might know… in which case, that’s an absolute negative effect for weight ins.
Drinking wine on an empty stomach gives you and insane amount of drunkenness. Done it like 4 times in my life and it’s like being drunk and high at the same time.
Red wine gives you the worst hangovers too. Like brutal. When I drink wine I drink a glass of water between every glass of wine. It helps but this dude is already dehydrated at that point.
The feeling of being drunk on an empty stomach is the best. Little bit goes a long way. Still have to eat something before passing out though, otherwise the hangover is a nightmare.
Well I actually think he would even beat Islam, give Ilia Topuria like 4 to 6 months to really bulk up to Lightweight and he knocks Islam tf out 😂 facts Striking is not even Topurias best asset he is 16-0 and only has 6 Knockout his BJJ is completely insane and he has been doing BJJ since he was 4 years old and he has more than 30 Black belts in his gym. He knocked out Herbert, ,Volkanovski and Holloway so thats-3 already 😂 We need that fight cause Islam would never be able to submit him, Ilia would scramble up and on the feet Islam stands no chance he even only would have a 1 inch advantage and featherweight skill > Lightweight skill Volkanovski in 8 minutes, Max in 17 as the first guy in 30 fights to knock out Max Holloway in 12 minutes and then Islam he would probably knock Islam out Round 3 or 4 and Volk, Holloway and Islam all back to back to back woud be the best 3 wins ever in UFC history
And why do weirdos still comment that😂.. Khabib should thank Conor honestly Conor was an alcoholic 200 million Dollars rich unmotivated coke head when they fought and was not even 10% the fighter anyone that made Eddie Alvarez look like he never fought before but Eddie Alvarez was really really good lol Alvarez knocked out Justin Gaethje 10 months after that
@failnation3472 Really though. His whole leaping into the audience felt like school yard shit. He knew he had the weaker man , but NOT the weaker warrior so even though I was disappointed with Conor , I was more so with Khabib. It's not like he fought baby bears coming up and was proud of it.
Like , he didn't teach Conor anything. He didn't even fight ' Conor. ' And Conor ... he could've made that money and stayed focused. Like Nipsey said , " Don't let the money make you dizzy man. "
@@failnation3472I actually think you shouldn't advocate double champ status for guys with 1 title defence. In his devision Jose Also has the record at 9 defences and thats what people should seek too achieve in there respective devisions fighting all the contenders not avoiding particular match ups. I don't think any champions should be trying for double champ if it holds up a devision. Illia still has a few decent contenders to deal with. Everybody wants to cry about John Jones holding up HW whilst simultaneously advocating for other champions to move up and down and stall devisions and that's daft. Alex Pereria has a few defences now and just a few solid contenders and then I think he's actually earned that opportunity and Islam is on a tear also but I couldn't see him moving up. Not everybody is the anomaly Conor Mcgregor was. He had the whole world watching him and the ppv numbers to back it. Theoretically it's cool to think about but please, stop.
@@jacquesmesrine8031Stfu. I'm not a fan of him as a fighter but he is a hard working good human being overall. He's not out there throwing weights at a bus, jumping over the octagon cage to attack someone or running over a pregnant lady.
He is honest about everything. Till you ask him about his rich family and how he got his money. Why is it anytime a person is benefited by their rich family they cant admit it.
Nobodies gonna read this but if ilia becomes and undefeated world champ and defends his belt over and over, his signature wine drinking while cutting weight will be viewed as a mainstream way to be successful before fights. Srsly Think about it Most unique / unnatural thing I’ve ever heard a fighter do while cutting weight
Yup espially harder when you have an empty stomach. I gotta atleast drink milk first or eat some food or else I feel the alcohol literally travel thru to my stomach and it’s not a good feeling lol. Espiaclly when weight cutting
Honestly. It's not a bad way to help sleep the day before the fight. I would think the wine would also help with weight cut because alcohol makes you sweat alot.
What are you talking about guy ? After you weigh in is when you rehydrate that’s WHEN YOU SLEEP LIKE A BABY . Stop playing pretend in RUclips comment sections , you don’t , fight , you don’t cut , weight , you’ve never done neither , you’re just a dude fishing for attention in a RUclips comment section .
Fr cant even imagine that like until 1 year ago I went to so many Partys and I didnt eat anything the entire day maybe 1 little stuff in the morning and you get faded so Quick so hard bro fr good point 😂😂
@failnation3472 ya I know. An empty stomach you get messed up now imagine drinking when you don't have food or water 😂 3 mouth fulls and you're gone somewhere else lol
man im starting to be a topuria fan, never disliked the man but wasnt really a fan, but this man is one tough son a bitch and he drinks too lmao now thats gangsta
Before they became a Champion they were humble and said God God God. All of a sudden after they became a Champion they start swearing a lot more and started being cocky.
He's trying to keep a secret it's a weight cutting trick old school bodybuilders would do it's a diarrhetic helps with getting rid of holding on to water
Dude found the cheat code to having fun before a fight and at the same time helping himself lose weight 😂
Wine is extremely caloric
