Middleweight Nate Marquardt woke up on weigh-in day with some pretty good news: He didn’t have to cut weight. He was 186 pounds.
The perennial contender went on to dominate Dan Miller this past Saturday at UFC 128, and he did it lean and mean.
He’s now refined his diet to the point at which heavy weight cuts could be a thing of the past. It also means he is in range of the welterweight division, which is a weight class he’s considering.
