The official weigh in event for WEC 43: "Cerrone vs. Henderson" is now in the books after the 20 fighters set to compete tomorrow night tipped the scale today at the Cowboys Dancehall in San Antonio, Texas.
For the most part, the event went off without a hitch.
Undercard replacement fighter Mackens Semerzier was the only fighter to have an issue. He came in a half a pound heavy on his first attempt to hit the 146-pound mark for his featherweight contest against Wagnney Fabiano. However, "The Menace" was successful in shedding the extra half pound on his second try.
Each of the other 19 fighters made their respective weights on their first attempt, including main event interim lightweight championship contenders Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone and Ben "Smooth" Henderson.
