How does this affect your prediction?

I'm leaning now more towards Vitor, missing that much weight makes me think AJ is not that into the fight and prolly didn't even have a goof camp. Doesnt matter if he's 10 or 15 pounds over, Vitor will be better prepared.

It says on Junkie's live result updates that Johnson weighed 197 lbs. which is crazy! But what I don't understand is they also said that if he doesn't weigh less than 205 tomorrow the fight won't take place? Oh nevermind had a brainfart lol. They're saying he can only re-hydrate up too the 205 lb. limit.

Something's wrong with that guys body chemistry, straight-up.

Something happened...He either has an injury that didn't allow him to do something or being in Brazil somehow ****** his cut...he's had his issues, for sure, but I refuse to think he said **** it and weighed in at 197

@poir420, yeah me too! Although I half expected him to come in over, I thought it would be 2-3 pounds that he would manage to drop in an hour or two. But 12 pounds? Before a PPV main card? AFTER going up a weight class?? I can imagine Dana's real happy with him.

@soccer he probably thought he could cut water weight but he might have built more muscle than he though he had and his weight was not from water but muscle therefore not being able to cut as much

Johnson should just fight at 205, I wonder if he could make weight then

MMA Discussion
Okay so here's the situation for tomorrow, Vitor Belfort has agreed to fight Anthony Johnson (despite missing weight by 10lbs) as long as Johnson doesn't weigh more then 205lbs tomorrow when weighed again. If Johnson weighs more than that, it looks like the fight won't go down. Here's hoping Rumble can rehydrate a bit, eat, sleep, and not gain more than 9 pounds overnight. -Blaze

Here's Thiago's friendly weight-cutting tip for Rumble:


@TurlochHealyTurloch Healy **** you @Anthony_Rumble you are a disgrace to the @ufc and should be cut, cut this man@danawhite ... I hope Vitor knocks you out.
