Quick read

Dustin Poirier has raised concerns about Khamzat Chimaev's official weigh-in, suggesting the scales were not properly balanced. During an appearance on Ariel Helwani's podcast, Poirier stated that officials announced 185 pounds immediately when Chimaev stepped on the scale, without allowing the hanging scales time to balance properly. Poirier emphasized that hanging scales require time to settle before an accurate reading can be taken. The comments come amid scrutiny of weigh-in procedures in high-profile championship fights. Details regarding official responses to these allegations remain limited at this time.
