(people chattering)
- Okay, so tonight I'm gonna start off with Justin
and pretty much just get his legs moving.
Make it as fun as possible.
And we'll probably go for 20 minutes
and then I'm gonna release it over to Ben.
Ben has done our weight cuts for us.
It really controlled the weight cut.
So I'm gonna put it all in his hands.
- Man, you can get your gloves off, good work.
(people chattering)
Amazing place to cut weight.
If gonna have to cut weight,
you wanna be in a comfortable environment
and this is what that affords us.
So we will get a good workout in
and then get the sauna and sweat it out.
He sweats a lot.
So it's just about getting the sweat broke
and staying active for 45 minutes to an hour
and then getting in the sauna and pulling the water off.
- This is just cut weight day.
And that's what we do.
We try to sneak in a little bit while they cut weight,
they do it to me all the time.
So I turn it to favor.
It's crazy.
Everyone always says that cliche
it's the best thing to look,
but to be honest with you,
he looks freaking damn good.
- Carla Esparza and Matt send some flowers
so we're gonna surprise her
before we get our workout in as she cuts weight.
(people chattering)
- Surprise.
- Oh, you guys are so sweet.
- That was just Matt.
- This is so sweet, so pretty.
We'll put them in the corner while we work out (laughs).
Thanks Matt, I love you.
Can't wait to marry you (laughs).
So sweet.
(bell rings)
(hand smacks)
- She's not real big weight cutter.
So her energy levels are pretty good.
And she's real explosive right now.
(hand smacks)
That's been a long time coming
and it's been a long road.
I mean, she's had to fight a lot of good people to get here.
And I think a lot of people forget
like some of the people she had to beat to get here.
I'm excited man.
It's seven and a half years or whatever.
So it'll be interesting to see
how much both of them have developed.
I know a lot of people think Rose is a lot better
but I think she's a lot better too.
