Dustin Poirier claims Khamzat Chimaev did not make weight properly at weigh-ins

Dustin Poirier has alleged that Khamzat Chimaev did not legitimately make the 185-pound weight limit for his upcoming fight. Speaking on Ariel Helwani's podcast, Poirier stated that as soon as Chimaev stepped on the scale, officials immediately announced 185 pounds without allowing the hanging scale to balance properly. Poirier emphasized that hanging scales need time to settle and equilibrate before an accurate reading can be confirmed. The claim raises questions about the weigh-in procedures and whether Chimaev's weight was accurately verified. This comes ahead of Chimaev's title defense at UFC 328.
