Fighters make weight for UFC 100

By Dann Stupp | Friday, July 10, 2009, 09:36 PM

LAS VEGAS - All 22 competitors taking part in Saturday’s UFC 100 event officially made weight for the show.

The weigh-ins were held today at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, which is the same venue that hosts Saturday’s pay-per-view event.

UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar came in at the 265-pound limit for the heavyweight division and was 20 pounds heavier than opponent and interim title-holder Frank Mir (245).

Welterweight challenger Thiago Alves, who’s struggled in the past to make weight, had no problems for his title fight with welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre. Both fighters weighed 170 pounds.
