Anthony Johnson weighing in perfectly at 197.
What a guy.
looks like Aldo's weight cut went good he flew up those stairs and hopped on the scale.
197lbs! wow well i'm not that surprise i knew he may got confident
that he had less weight to cut and may miss it again
but never by that much i was expecting a 187 not 197
no wonder the article about him willing to fight at Light Heavyweight
the other day.
Also i remember watching the countdown and seeing how much bigger Johnson was compared to Rashad!
the question is how the hell he made 170 before being 220??
that must be the biggest weight cut in the history of the UFC for sure
what ever he did before he should have keep on doing it. You would think it be easier for him to make weight this time but WOW.
LOL "You're gonna die"
Doesn't get any more direct than that. Love brazil!
11 pounds over the limit, and he can gain 8 more pounds before the fight.
WTF!
I literally had to reread 197 twice. Way to take it seriously Anthony.... If you beat Vitor you'll never make it out of the country alive.
"You're gonna die," really? That's kinda disturbing man...
i think fighters get cauliflower ears from Jo Rogan yelling in them
Aldo! KO
Vitor! KO
Rousimar! Heel Hook
Silva! TKO
Barboza! DEC
Aldo said - I will only leave the octagon dead (if without the belt)
AJ is a beast - 197 and riped and lean like a mofo
Belfor was pissed ( no hand shake) and looked as if he knows he will lose.
After this fight Dana should let Anthony Johnson know he has to fight at 205,or go to Strikeforce...hes making the sport look like a circus.
Johnson looks like he wants the weight advantage........hes going to look soo stupid if Vitor knocks him out......
Cumoooooon Vitor
I bet AJ knew he was not going to make weight a while ago and gave up. That way he could stay a little comfortable before the fight and not get drawn out by all that Lasix. Clearly Vitor already knew this because the new contract was already decided. Smart on Vitor to force another weigh in so AJ has to watch his intake throughout the night. Exciting or not they should drop AJ to the minor leagues till he learns his lesson.
he shouldn't be allowed to way over 197 not 205 this is a joke
