</form> Former Love Island contestant Tyla Carr has claimed the show is staged as she lifts the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes

 Model Tyla, who appeared on last year's series of the dating show, claimed producers would "prompt" contestants to discuss specific topics

 Tyla said TV bosses would "suggest it would be a good idea if you brought something up or discussed something"

 She also claimed the show hopefuls would be asked to reshoot juicy scenes if they hadn't been caught on camera

 Tyla said that there's always at least one producer on site who would come in and check up on them every hour or make an announcement for someone to come and have a chat with them

 "They tell you what they want you to talk about, and who with."   She added to the Daily Star : "You have to tell the producers on site if you are planning to have an important chat or do something, so they make sure the microphones pick it up and the cameras get it

 "If you forget they would call you in and ask you to film it again."  While she said producers would prompt them and make suggestions about what to discuss, she added that they don't make contestants do anything that's not already taken place, or make contestants do things they don't want to do

 "Basically, if you've had three separate conversations with someone they may ask you to have the conversation again all in one go to make it better viewing," she said

Wourld Cup 2018: Fightweets: What is Johny Hendricks' legacy? - Duration: 5:56.

MMA: Fightweets: What is Johny Hendricks' legacy?

It's one final, quiet-ish weekend before International Fight Week kicks in.

But that doesn't mean there was a lack of news.

So let's get right into another edition of Fightweets.

Johny Hendricks' retirement.

@chjobin: With your magic powers, tell us what really happened with Hendricks.

Going from gassing early to pushing GSP, from a UFC champion to a fading middle-aged athlete.

Please. Enlighten us!.

@Screenplaya: Will Jonhy Hendricks stay retired?.

Let's hope so.

And that also goes for Rashad Evans and Josh Koscheck, both of whom also announced their retirements this week.

Hendricks' career downfall was more high-profile than most, with a series of weight-cut issues and poor performances in the cage that got to the point of being cringe-inducing.

And it all seemed to happen in the blink of an eye.

But that shouldn't erase the memories of what this guy was in his prime: A super-tough competitor with absolute thunder in his fists who could change a fight's complexion in the blink of an eye and also had the wrestling game to compete with anyone in his division.

Hendricks' run to the UFC welterweight championship was one of the sport's more memorable stretches, with lightning-fast knockouts of Jon Fitch and Martin Kampmann and a thrilling fight with Carlos Condit to earn his shot at Georges St-Pierre's belt.

I personally had Hendricks winning his infamous fight with GSP at UFC 167 by a score of 48-47.

Maybe you had it the other way and I'm not going to argue it with you if you do.

But either way, GSP was soon gone, and their fight was close enough that you couldn't knock Hendricks' claim to the belt when he edged Robbie Lawler in 2014's Fight of the Year to claim the belt.

All seemed rosy from there, right? Hendricks was 16-2 and on top of the world.

Then he went another five rounds with Lawler at UFC 181 and didn't get the nod.

After a win over Matt Brown, things really went south.

He was pulled from a UFC 192 fight with Tyron Woodley over a bad weight cut.

He then lost five out of six fights, and missed weight three times along the way, including once at middleweight.

What went wrong? Well, for one thing, going 10 rounds with a killer like Lawler is bad news for anyone.

It's entirely possible those were the sort of career-altering wars from which a fighter never recovers.

And that's before we factor in those weight cuts.

Hendricks dropped huge amounts of, and already had a couple near-misses on the scale during his prime, before things went off the cliff.

Hendricks had been old-school about weight cutting all the way back to his Oklahoma State wrestling days, and his body plainly stopped responding to the relentless yo-yoing.

So with all that said, what's Hendricks' legacy? He's become the butt of jokes, which is unfortunate, because he was a tenacious competitor with a well-earned reputation for exciting fights.

He's also a poster boy for why weight-cut reform is needed in the sport.

Maybe he was on the downside after the Lawler wars either way, but his issues with the scale clearly helped accelerate the process.

Will Hendricks return? I hope not.

Just like with Evans and Koscheck, the last string of fights were ugly to watch.

Maybe a ways down the road, Bellator will offer Evans or Hendricks big money to come out of retirement (it's hard to see them do it for Koscheck, who washed out in Bellator), and we'll talk ourselves into it, but that doesn't mean it's anything to savor.
