Jon Jones morphs into a different character on the eve of his struggles and once he enters the Octagon. During the weigh-ins for UFC on versus 2, he did not go nose-to-nose with his opponent, how did the last weigh-in with Brandon Vera but Jones was intense. Jones (10-1, 4-1 UFC) stared down Vladimir Matyushenko (24-4, 5-2 UFC) and seemed ready to hyperventilate.
All about paper made of weight except DaMarques Johnson. The 9 season of alum "The Ultimate Fighter" lost the limit welterweight 172.5 pounds. He was released a few minutes later to weigh without his trunks and still lost.It must've been a cut weight tax because Johnson elected not to take the rest of the time allocated and sweat out the rest of the weight. Johnson decided to fight to 172 and then loses 20% of her purse.
It was interesting to hear that former UFC heavyweight and the man who ended 10-year unbeaten streak of Fedor Emelianenko, Fabricio Werdum was in presenza. According to average down in San Diego, the fans lined up to get an autograph from Werdum.
