UFC: Paul Craig says weight cut to middleweight triggered eating disorder, eyes return to light heavyweight

UFC veteran Paul Craig says his move to middleweight led to an eating disorder, hormone issues, and repeated infections after extreme cuts from 220 to 185 pounds. After one win, he dropped three straight and will return to light heavyweight, where he beat Magomed Ankalaev and Jamahal Hill. Craig is speaking up to push other fighters to seek help.
