For us UFC fans, this is so disappointing. Rumble has had a history of failing to make weight at 170 pounds, so Dana finally forced him to move up to middleweight. Well, UFC 142 is upon us tomorrow night, and watching the weigh-ins, guess who is at it AGAIN. Rumble is 197 pounds. Let me say that again....197. The middleweight limit for a non-title fight is 186. Not....even...friggin...close. Don't be surprised if he is cut by Zuffa after this one. Vitor Belfort, his opponent, has said he'll fight Rumble if he weighs 205 or less. Just insane how many chances this guy gets. I think he might be out of them now.
Update : According to Dana, if Rumble does not weigh less than 205 pounds by a particular time on Saturday, the bout will be canceled. He's already forfeiting 20 percent of his fight purse.
