Psyched for this card!

I think these are the real weigh ins too. No early weigh ins.

DC vs Rumble 2

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Anik and Hardy are the two in the booth tomorrow? Interesting.

And yes, these are the actual weigh-ins. No early weigh-ins because the fights are taking place in the morning for them.

I feel like The Demolition Man is a one-fighter nickname. Then again, Overeem abandoned it to go with The Reem so I get it.

Yao Zhikui is 2-4 in his career. Let that sink in.

 

[chunglii]

Yao has no fucking idea he missed weight lol

 

[JayPettryMMA]

And Yao weighed in heavy and the dude didn't understand that he could try again with the towel.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Two hours for Yao to cut the last pound.

 

[Sgt Smith]

Best of luck to @Richard Walsh. We'll be rooting for you.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

War @Richard Walsh!

 

[chunglii]

Danielle Taylor has more defined traps and shoulders than Thiago Alves

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Is Danielle Taylor vs Seo Hee Ham the smallest fight in UFC history? 5' vs 5'2.

 

[leto1776]

Ham's face? Meh. From the neck down? Yum.

 

[LUDELOW]

Big tits blonde

 

[shonuf]

card looks like it could be very decision heavy. Hope we get some fun fights somehow.

 

[shonuf]

Cool to hear Gilbert in on the show. He struggles a bit with the desk stuff but i really liked him in the booth when he'd do it with Strikeforce.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Update: Taylor vs Ham does tie the record for the smallest, height wise, in UFC history. 122 inches between them. Taylor is 5' on the nose, and Ham is 5'2.

Previously, Angela Magana v Tecia Torres, both 61 inches (according to the UFC website anyways), might have held that record. Sherdog lists Magana at 5'4 (64"), however, so that's up for debate.

And no, flyweights are taller. Lineker, Dodson, and Mighty Mouse are all 5'3.
