It wasn't the process by which you forcibly dehydrate your body after a strenuous training camp.
It was the IV or lack thereof.
If you weren't cutting 20 lb's it never would have happened:
"Brunson told MMAjunkie that one small change in his post-weigh-in routine set everything spiraling over the next 24 hours, and left him in a bad spot come fight time. Gassing out in the third was inevitable, he believes, and all started after making weight."
"“I’ll be working with a nutritionist to find out how to rehydrate properly, because whatever I’m doing isn’t working. I’ll get a good meal plan and a good way to rehydrate, and never forget that IV."
Yeah, now that you're in the UFC, that would be a good idea.
