Why is the weight-in 2hrs earlier than normal?

 

[Koala]

Poirier and Makhachev made weight
The fight is on

 

[Joinho10]

Great. Main event already weighed in.

 

[Jackonfire]

Why is the weight-in 2hrs earlier than normal?

Because the card is in New Jersey on the east coast.

 

[Conan the K-9]

Because the card is in New Jersey on the east coast.

But the main card starts same time as usual or?

Yea the main card starts at 10:00 PM EST. I think weigh ins (when they are in the US at least) are always at 9:00 AM local time. Could be wrong though

Thank you, the ufc has fooled me a couple times with weirdly timed cards.

 

[Rektkid]

Wait, Islam made weight? I thought he only fights at AD and it's the only place he can make weight. Where the trolls at?

 

[TerraRayzing]

Islam being one of the first ones to make weight.
Outside Abu Dhabi.

 

[ZaphMMA]

Costa still not weighing in...

A bit too much secret juice. Odds on him making weight... not good

Hoes mad

Why mad?

 

[Koala]

Lima missed weight at 130
Fight with Raposo still on

 

[Jackonfire]

Hey Weidman - Whittaker vs Costa wasn't a razor thin split decision.

 

[Koala]

Did she use her elbow to make weight?

 

[Doughie99]

Missing by 4lbs at a 125lb weight class is pretty bad. At least Raposo gonna make quite a lot more $$$.

Also.... Once again no Laura Sanko in the weigh-in show.
Instead we have hyperactive Megan Olivi in place of Dan Hellie and Jim Miller in place of Laura.

Half the reason I tune in for this show is Sanko......

Seems a little odd. Almost everybody made champ weight. Even Romanov at HW. Out of everybody that made weight only Edwards, and Rowe used the allowance pound. And Almeida is way under at HW.

12/12 fights on the card have at least one fighter at champ weight. And only the ME is a title fight. I don’t specifically ever remember 20/24 fighters making champ weight before. 8 fights have both fighters weighing in at champ weight.
