REPLAY UFC 192: Cormier vs. Gustafsson weigh-ins and results
Daniel Cormier and Alexander Gustafsson both hit the scale and made weight ahead of their main event title fight showdown at UFC 192 in Houston on Saturday night.
Gustafsson hit the mark at 204 pounds before telling the crowd at the Toyota Center that he will have his hand raised with the title in hand when he's finished with Cormier.
"You've got a new world champion tomorrow," Gustafsson said.
Cormier came out for his weigh-in looking happier than ever before with a big smile across his face as he bounced up to the scale. Cormier came in at 205 pounds on weight for his first title defense in just 24 hours.
Cormier had a strong statement for Gustafsson after the weigh-ins telling the Swedish light heavyweight that after he's done with him on Saturday he might want to consider retirement.
"Best weight cut ever. Tomorrow, I release the chains," Cormier said. "I allow Alex to stop worrying about being a fighter. He's talked about retiring time and time again. Go back to Sweden and become a model."
The only fighter on the card who didn't make weight was Francisco Trevino, who came in at 160 pounds for his lightweight bout against Sage Northcutt.
Welterweight Tyron Woodley hit the scale as well where he weighed in at 170 pounds, which was required after his opponent Johny Hendricks was deemed medically unable to fight on Saturday. Woodley made weight to receive his 'show' money for Saturday night's fight card since his fight was cancelled.
