Sollte sein Teamkollege Anthony Johnson den Light Heavyweight Title gewinnen, will Evans eher ins Middleweight wechseln:
Zitat:“When Anthony wins, I’m not going to fight Anthony. I’m just going to help him be the strongest champ he can be. At that point, I may go down to 185 or do some superfights or whatever. I’ve got to chase the belt. I can’t just be hanging around, doing these fights for money. I’ve got to fight for something. At that point, if he wins, I’ll probably drop down to 185.
If Anthony wins, I definitely would strongly consider moving down to 185. One of the biggest problems for me is just being able to cut down. Believe it or not, I’m pretty heavy. I get up to like 240 (pounds). If I went down, it would have to be over a period of time, and I’d have to do it like Machida did it.
Machida went down and stayed down and kind of chipped away at it. That’s what I would have to do: Reset my body to go lower and lower and then kind of stay lower. It would be a hard cut for me cutting from 240 all the way to 185.”
