Dolce on Hendricks walking over 200 lbs: Health is more important than sport!

Renowned dietician Mike Dolce has serious concerns about the lifestyle of former UFC champion Johny Hendricks, who was hospitalized following a brutal weight cut prior to UFC 193.

We always knew that former UFC welterweight champion Johny Hendricks had weight issues. But when he got hospitalized with kidney stones a day before the UFC 193 weigh-ins, he might have taken it one step too far. Not only will his habit of gaining tremendous amounts of weight during fights now have a negative effect on his career in the Octagon, in can seriously affect his health, says his former nutritionist Mike Dolce.
