In less than two hours, all 24 fighters that are scheduled to fight tomorrow night for UFC 160 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, will step on the scale to make the official UFC weight limit for their division.
The main event features a rematch between UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez and Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva. At UFC 156, Silva dismantled Alistair Overeem in the final round, winning the bout by KO, earning the giant a title shot in the division. Some still feel Silva is a massive underdog going into this fight since Velasquez pummeled him to a bloody mess a year ago. Just look up UFC 156 in Google to refresh your memory.
In the co-main event, former champion Junior dos Santos will meet the surging Mark Hunt, who recently had visa issues that could have forced him to pull out of the bout. UFC President Dana White later confirmed it wasn’t as big of an issue most media turned it out to be. If Dos Santos wins tomorrow night, expect him to be next in line for the heavyweight title shot.
The UFC 160 weigh-ins takes place today at 7 p.m. ET. Be sure to tune back to Yell! Magazine to watch it LIVE.
