Montreal—If you think the build-up to UFC 158 has been interesting over the last week or so, just wait until Friday’s weigh-ins, or so said UFC president Dana White.
Following Thursday’s rather heated pre-fight press conference, White met with the media and said, referring to the fight card’s main-event competitors, welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and Nick Diaz, “You think they’re bad today, wait until tomorrow at the weigh-ins; they’ll be 10 times worse than they are today.”
We’ll find out if that is promoter hyperbole from White or reality shortly after 4 p.m. ET on Friday when the fighters hit the scales for the weigh-ins.
In case you are unaware, there is more than one fight on Saturday’s fight card. In fact, there are a total of 12 fights taking place from the Bell Centre in Montreal on Saturday night, including two fights that could rearrange the top of the welterweight rankings as Carlos Condit meets Johny Hendricks and Jake Ellenberger takes on Nate Marquardt.
Bleacher Report will be on site at the Bell Centre for all the happenings at the weigh-ins, so make sure to check back as we do our best to capture the atmosphere from the event on Friday afternoon.
