    He weighed 165.8 lbs. at the 7 day away weigh-in and still missed the weight? Smh. I'm not like a lot of these dudes on here who think a fighter should literally be murdered because they miss weight, but how could he not lose that last 6 with a week out?

                    He didnt weigh in at 165.8, he drained himself a week ago as well to make that weight. Draining yourself is not easy, as sometimes your body will not lose anymore water without danger.

                        He missed it by 1.8 pounds, it's not that much of an advantage, Ive seen far worse. And he can't win the title now right? So at best he gets bragging rights if he won.

                                We don't have enough info to know. Some guys drop earlier than others (draining a little bit every day for a week and doing only light workouts instead of shocking themselves at the weigh ins) but can't squeeze out the final couple pounds in time.

                                If he opted to just give away $100,000 rather than try to sweat it out then he must have already tried and failed.

                                No big deal though.

                                        He was also slapped with a rehydration limit of 1.2 pounds...he's done.
