The official weigh in event for UFC 144: "Edgar vs. Henderson" took place tonight (Fri., Feb. 24, 2012) from the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.
And all was going swimmingly until Quinton Jackson, who got the biggest reception of the night, mind you, hit the scale and nearly collapsed the stage. "Rampage" weighed in at a whopping 211-pounds for his light heavyweight bout against Ryan Bader, who agreed to take 20-percent of Jackson's purse in exchanging for continuing on with the fight.
Old Quinton must not have been able to resist that two-dollar 7-Eleven fried chicken.
UFC 144: "Edgar vs. Henderson" will be headlined by a 155-pound title fight featuring number one division contender Ben Henderson, fresh off his unanimous decision win over Clay Guida, taking on reigning lightweight champion Frankie Edgar.
In addition, a welterweight clash between Jake Shields vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama is on tap, as well as a light heavyweight tilt between Quinton Jackson vs. Ryan Bader.

That's an old photo, genius
Even tho I initially acted like a small child, I have been forced to come to my senses. enzo-enormous is better at calling fights than I am, by far. I am a little immature but am working on it. Also, I love dudes and cant wait to get a reach around from the 209
I dont understand something
How the weigh ins live at 11 pm our time tonight when the fight is tomorrow? That would make the weigh ins live in Japan at 11 am. That means weigh ins and fights are same day there? Unless the fights are on Sunday in Japan in the morning which makes it Sat night here?
yeah it will be like 10am for them when they fight
just to please you yanks… outrageous

Japanese people aren't allowed to order the PPV?
Why?

It could be Zuffa's attempt at widening their market and growth of the sport in countries outside the US
A chink in the armor of Zuffa’s profit intake, that’s forsure.

Shields/Akiyama and Kongo/Hunt...
Should not be promoted ahead of any of the first 3 fights on the main card.
Pettis/Lauzon should be before the co main event and even Hioki/Bartimus has title implications…the winner is more than likely going to fight Aldo on free tv

Hioki against Aldo
Would be a massacre

Damn...Bader looks the most ripped I've seen him at weigh ins
And Rampage is over weight…damn…I think Bader may pull this off
Oh shit, now I don't know whether to take a fat Rampage or a ripped Bader

if you're gonna bet $$$ ripped bader.. the payoff way better
"Did you know that if you mix equal parts

i hear fankie is walking round 160's but it obviously isnt all muscle, since we've seen the weighin
the extra weight is unecessary and some cause for concern in such a tight fight it may make him a little off versus on the money like he’s always been. Rampage, frankie nd Boetsch are the fighters that cause me the most concern…. I swear boetsch can make 170lbs.
"Did you know that if you mix equal parts

Boetsch would have to cut both ass cheeks off to make 170
…I would not watch him fight at 170!

Damn Page!
I knew he was not taking this fight seriously when he said he doesnt care if he wins or loses. Wasted talent… If loses, its only because he gave it to badar and got lazy.
I feel bad for Frankie
Im an Edgar fan but I think Henderson wins this by first round sub…Anyone else agree?
dont know about 1st rd sub
but I do like Bendo to win this one. Likely will go to a decision. This has potential for fight of a lifetime
i dont give out free signatures
I only said that
because if he doesnt get it in the first round when they are still fresh and not sweaty, I agree it will go to a decision too and at that point, I like Edgar for it. I think his speed is going to frustrate Ben as the fight goes on. I just see this as a quick and huge upset for some reason. I hope im wrong though.
sad Rampage. beg for your japan spot and show up that overweight.
win or lose..its over.

People people calm down.....Bader has always been ripped
It is dissapointing to see page come in OW but he still has this fight
Trust me
Just like Anthony Johnson

You mean the same AJ who came in OW and still lost to Vitor? I think Page still wins but that brother's MMA career is officially over.
Mania is not quite Mania without Dakatak. Come back soon, Dak.

Don't bring up AJ's name please...
I’m still sad
They should have never offered him a fight at MW…he was doing just fine at WW…he would have been in the mix right now
at least someone sees eye to eye
he needs to be more professional though

For some reason,
I think that to be true. He just looks like hes had enough and wants to end his career where it started, win lose or draw.
Rampage was overweight and still looked half of Baders size
Also, I hope Frankie smashes Bendo tomorrow.
And, Akiyama looked like a Super Saiyan.
