Shamil Gaziev confirms he weighed 140kg before training camp for UFC Perth

Shamil Gaziev confirmed he weighed 140 kilograms before beginning his training camp ahead of his upcoming fight. The heavyweight revealed he has been on a diet for the last six weeks of camp. According to his social media posts, Gaziev now weighs approximately 119 kg, well within the heavyweight limit, and should have no issues making weight. In a recent interview, Gaziev had discussed his weight outside of fight preparation, prompting some concern among fans that has now been alleviated. His dramatic weight cut demonstrates the physical demands heavyweight fighters face even without a strict weight class limit.
