I wonder how much weight in clothing he actually had on there, I doubt 7lbs but still didn't even try at all. I hate seeing ppl dead in the scale.

Edit: holy crap I thought the fight was at 135 not 145. Wtf is going on here? He made weight by several pounds wearing clothes, why would you cut that extreme?

Crazy thing is he still “easily” made weight, but at what cost, god damn

 

[MigitAs]

Wow that guy has a strong mind

 

[GreenGorilla]

Making Featherweight at his height, I think my kidneys would just explode.

Damn my bad too I thought he was fighting 135 not 145, wtf is he doing then? This is bizarre are hell, did they do an overcut?

Who's his trainer, Christian Bale?

 

[NicholasJBasile]

Definitely one of the more bizarre weigh ins I've ever seen -- a dude looking barely able to walk... but he's fully clothed... but he's underweight by 3 lbs? wtf?/? I hope he's okay.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Shit, bet the house on that fucking weirdo tryhard he's fighting I guess.

Shame was looking forward to this one, but surely this fight cannot go forward?

 

[Reach4theSky]

I'm waiting for the day a fighter has organ failure due to this sh!t..

Spoiler

 

[Kryptt]

Yea, fuck that shit. Insane.

 

[flektarn]

Bro needs to get his routine dialed in. That's nasty.

He tryharded

 

[VinceArch]

Possibly cut that much to show he might do a potential move at 135?

Pretty sure the weight cutting will have contributed to the liver/organ failure that Rumble Johnson died from

 

[Substance Abuse]

Arizona State Athletic Commission must have flown out and snuck in a faulty scale like they did to Charlie Olives a while back.

"Wait! What?! The fight is at FW and not BW?!"

Shame was looking forward to this one, but surely this fight cannot go forward?

That was my thought as well. I won't be surprised if this fight gets cancelled.

Was the scale he used not calibrated at all? I'm pretty sure UFC is on top of that shit though weighing them on the same calibrated scales throughout the week.

Or did this dummy have some uncalibrated scale in his hotel room the whole time?

Maybe he thought he was fighting at a catchweight of 140 or something stupid?

Food poisoning since yesterday and dropped way too much and is now feeling woozy af?


Big ass t-shirt full of sweat too..
