The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 5 Finale weigh-in
The field of 18 fighters — including BJ Penn and Jens Pulver — set to compete tomorrow at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) Finale all tip the scales today from 6-8 p.m. EST for the official weigh-in.

For some reason I just can't wait for that staredown.

Anyway, here are all that particulars from UFC.com:

Location:
The Palms Hotel & Casino
Soprano Ballroom
Second Floor

Address:
4321 West Flamingo Road
Las Vegas, NV 89103

The weigh-in is FREE and open to the public. It will not be televised or broadcast over the Internet like the major pay-per-view (PPV) events from what we can gather.

UFC.com mentions that "highlights" will be available later in the day on its Web site. In fact, weigh-in videos and photos are often posted on UFC.com relatively soon after each event.

In the meantime, we will post the results as soon as that information becomes available later on today.

TUF 5 Finale will take place tomorrow on Saturday, June 12, at The Palms Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. For the complete fight card click here.

Sidenote: If you missed "Bad Blood: B.J. Penn vs. Jens Pulver" on Spike the other night don't fret ... the network is running it again at midnight tonight. In addition, Spike will also air a TUF 5 season marathon all day tomorrow (Saturday) leading up until showtime. Check your local listings.

Take it for what is worth, but I read an article saying that he is in great shape and walking around at 158lbs.

BJ looks like a miniature version of the State Puff Marshmellow Man

Actually I would say that he looks more like the Pillsbury Dough Boy – OOOO-HOOOOO; that was cooked for the 11-12 minutes (what the packaging calls for). Buzzer goes off and he came out a perfect golden color, not to dark and crispy, and not undercooked and pale. The only other difference between the two is that the Pillsbury Dough Boy doesnt have cauliflower ears. I had met BJ once several months ago. I was like 3 feet away from him outside of an arena and it was pouring out – a torrential downpour. I closed my umbrella and poked him in the stomach, and sure enough he let out a high pitched “OOOOOO-HOOOOO”

LoL. Did you use his ears as an umbrella?

Isn’t it Stay Puft Marshmallow Man?

I read the same thing. Was it here? Or over at UFC.com? I can’t remember. His trainer was saying BJ’s been running 6-8miles a day and is looking really good.

I hope he looks better than he does in that banner photo, he looks kinda soft and squishy in that pic.

BTW, what happens when you roast a Stay Puft Marshmellow perfectly? Golden brown on the outside and creamy go on the inside.
