    The new joke of MMA, Quinton Jackson! Who else was watching the weigh ins with Rogan & Quinton thinking or wishing something would've happen?

    Lol that would have been funny. I know things happen with weight but come one if youre UFC level you should be making weight. Not missing it by 5 lbs!

    This missing weight thing is becoming more and more of an issue.

    Predictions: I think Henderson is gonna get that title and Lauzon will win in a Fight of the Night performance.

    Jackson mentioned that he had retained water on the flight. What I want to know is why is he flying into Japan so close to the night of the fight? If I were him I would of been there at least a week early to acclimate and loose the warer retained from flight.

    When you fly your body is under an increased amount of pressure. This can cause lumphatic edema where the lumphatic fluid leaks out of the lymphatic vessels and into the surrounding tissues. This extra fluid in your tissues can cause extra weight that can be difficult to remove quickly.

    Weird. I read he had an injury so he couldn't get any "roadwork" in to lose it. Excuses excuses

    Theres really no excuse to miss weight for these guys. At that proffesional level its unacceptable. Id give the other fighter all of his purse and not let them fight. That would probably stop this trend
