UFC 85 Weigh In Results: Thiago Alves Misses Weight

[Xplode]

Well the weigh ins for UFC 85 took place and Thiago Alves missed weight by 4 lbs. Matt Hughes has agreed to fight Thiago regardless.

This has to be arguably Alves' most important fight of his career and he misses weight? What does this have to say about his discipline or lack there of. This is not the first time this has happened in a Matt Hughes fight, I remember when Frank Trigg missed weight and IIRC that was a title fight!

What do you guys think about Thiago Alves missing weight?

At 4 pounds doesn't make a real big difference,but he might be not in as good shape,but only time will tell.Glad Matt still took the fight.

I think it is horse shit, they should take some of his earnings away.

Glad Matt took the fight as well, the only prob now is when he gets his ass beat the nut huggers have an excuse.
