Keep refreshing this page for the latest in weight-sucking from
Portland, Oregon in anticipation of Saturday's
UFC 102: Couture vs.
Nogueira. And remember: if you don't pass out on the scale, you're not
trying.
7:02 p.m. ET --
Evan Dunham doffs the shoes, socks, shirts, etc. 155 on
the nose. Mini-Clive Owen,
Marcus Aurelio, approaches the stage.
They’re working the scale hard. 156.
7:04 p.m. ET --
Mark Munoz enters. The “Filipino Wrecking Machine” is
sort of -- strange, no? Do we call Jardine the “Caucasian Dean of Mean”?
Munoz is 185.5.
Nick Catone sucking it in a little bit. 185.5.
7:06 p.m. ET --
Todd Duffee strolls up the stairs. Barrel-chested
fellow. 251 lbs.
Tim Hague: 263.5 with gum.
7:08 p.m. ET -- Cop
Mike Russow gets on the scale with a t-shirt on.
That’s always a little weird. Maybe he didn’t manscape. 260 even.
Justin McCully waves to a receptive (i.e. non-booing) crowd. A little
imaginary lat syndrome happening. 238.
7:11 p.m. ET -- Anime-haired
Chris Tuchscherer steps on: 258 lbs.
Gabriel Gonzaga gets a good reaction. He’s got his mouthpiece in. The
man is ready for anything. 259 lbs.
7:12 p.m. ET --
Aaron Simpson enters. “Let’s go, Herman!” someone
yells. The life of a prelim fighter. 185 even.
Ed Herman follows.
185.5.
7:14 p.m. ET --
Jake Rosholt to the scale. 185 lbs. What distracting
hairstyle will
Chris Leben adopt tonight? Oh. He’s looking normal.
185.
7:16 p.m. ET --
Krzysztof Soszynski coming in. Mr. Mxyzptlk weighs in
at 205 even.
Brandon Vera in the Speedos. 205.
7:17 p.m. ET --
Demian Maia on stage:
Royce Gracie 2009. 185 even.
Thiago Silva is 205,
Keith Jardine the same. Silva puts
on his sunglasses for the staredown.
7:22 p.m. ET --
Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Dorian Grey: A solid Nogueira
steps to the scale. He was 246 lbs. for the Mir fight; 231 lbs. here.
Randy Couture, 220 for
Brock Lesnar, is the same weight but looks
better. He steps down and immediately sips the blood of a baby to
replenish.
