Dustin Poirier has alleged that Khamzat Chimaev's weigh-in was not conducted correctly. Speaking on Ariel Helwani's podcast, Poirier claimed that as soon as Chimaev stepped on the scale, officials immediately announced 185 pounds without allowing the scale to balance. Poirier emphasized that the scales used were hanging scales that require time to stabilize before an accurate reading can be confirmed. The accusation raises questions about the legitimacy of Chimaev's official weigh-in. Neither UFC officials nor Chimaev's team have publicly responded to Poirier's claims. This statement adds controversy to Chimaev's upcoming fight.
