Dustin Poirier has publicly questioned whether Khamzat Chimaev legitimately made weight at the UFC 328 weigh-ins. Speaking on Ariel Helwani's podcast, Poirier stated that the scale was announced at 185 pounds immediately upon Chimaev stepping on it, without allowing time for the balance to settle. Poirier emphasized that hanging scales require time to calibrate and balance properly. The allegation raises concerns about the accuracy of the official weigh-in result. This controversy comes ahead of Chimaev's title defense against Sean Strickland at UFC 328.
