Probably to give Orreo-la extra time to rehydrate back to 300lbs.
Yes I'm aware heavyweights don't have to cut down but Orreo-la did to impress his fans. Now he needs to get his "true form" back up to 300lbs or so.

Does it really matter when heavyweight weigh-ins are?

Haha, beat me to it. Arreola looked weight drained at the weigh in, lol. He simply can't cut down to 250 comfortably anymore, so they wanted to weigh in early so he could get back up to his comfort zone of 270-280.

On a side note, Arreola was seen shortly after the weigh in getting a grande meal from taco bell. lol jk
