Despite the fact that the UFC’s 214 pay-per-view (PPV) is a month away, the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) has already held its first weigh-in for the event.

UFC 214 competitors  Daniel Cormier, Jon Jones, Tyron Woodley, Demian Maia, Cris Cyborg and Tonya Evinger all weighed in early for the commission via FaceTime. These weigh-ins stem from the commission’s new, historic regulations – a 10 point plan aimed to help fighters maintain and effective yet healthy weight cut.

Part of that plan allows the commission to check the weight of fighters involved in title fights 30 and 10 days before fight night, similar to what the World Boxing Council does for their title fights.

“We are so pleased with the cooperation from the camps and the fighters,” Foster said (quotes via MMA Fighting). “This was not some kind of small undertaking and everyone was very helpful in getting it done.”

Foster also noted that his doctors had a weight limit set for each title fight, however, he was reluctant to disclose those numbers.

UFC 214 will go down live on pay-per-view (PPV) from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. It will feature three title fights; including a bout between Cyborg Justino and Tonya Evinger for the vacant featherweight title, a welterweight title bout between Tyron Woodley and Demian Maia, and a light heavyweight title match between rivals Daniel Cormier and Jon Jones in the main event.

The Official UFC 214 Poster Is Out & It’s A Weird One

Looks like Daniel Cormier might be mad about another UFC poster he’s featured on.

The UFC released the official poster for Cormier’s UFC 214 main event against former champion Jon Jones from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, on July 29, and let’s just say the champ isn’t featured as prominently as he may like. Check it out:

It’s a strange look to have Cormier, the champion who has defended the championship twice since his rival Jones was stripped of the belt for his disturbing hit-and-run accident that left a 25-year-old pregnant woman with a broken arm in April 2015, upside down on the poster for their anticipated rematch.

True, Jones beat “DC” at January 2015’s UFC 182, and is arguably the most dominant fighter in MMA history. But Cormier is the champion regardless of if many feel “Bones” is the rightful champ or not, and promoting it the opposite is sure to further irk Cormier.

If you’ll remember, “DC” had issues with the poster for his UFC 210 meeting with Anthony “Rumble” Johnson, where the heavy hitter was featured much larger as he loomed over a smaller image of Cormier on the official poster.

Cormier’s yet to respond, but overall, it’s simply a strange decision to put your champ upside down on an event poster, and could reflect the UFC’s view of whom they are rooting for on July 29.

Do you think the UFC should have taken a different design route, or is it a good look in your opinion?
