Former UFC welterweight title challenger, Jorge Masvidal, tipped the scale at 175.2 pounds during the “Last Man Standing” official weigh ins on Friday. By the time he stepped into the ring for his Nate Diaz boxing match the following evening at Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., “Gamebred” weighed 204.1 pounds.
That’s just six pounds less than what UFC champion Alex Pereira weighed after “Poatan” rehydrated for his middleweight title fights.
California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) provided MMA Fighting with the fight night weights for all 20 fighters competing last weekend in “The Golden State.” Diaz weighed in at 175.6 on Friday and returned on Saturday night weighing 190.2, an increase of 14.6 pounds (compared to 28.9 pounds for Masvidal).

Diaz defeated Masvidal by majority decision after 10 rounds of action.
“I definitely know the judges were influenced by the crowd,” Jorge said at the Last Man Standing post-fight press conference. “Because a lot of those shots were landing in the corner. I was just getting my timing, he’d throw three or four shots, it wouldn’t land, and then I throw a good power shot. I’d see that I hurt him, I’d back him up, or he’d start goofing around. Hurt him to the body numerous times. And I think one or two of the judges only gave me two rounds. There’s just no way, you know?”
