UFC 107 Weigh-Ins

UFC 107 sees the UFC head to the the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee Saturday night with the lead fight seeing BJ Penn taken on Diego Sanchez for the UFC lightweight title.

Other highlights for the night include a heavyweight fight between Cheick Kongo and Frank Mir, and a lightweight bout featuring Clay Guida and Kenny Florian.

The Weigh-Ins Friday weren’t without that little something extra: 6 fighters had to strip off to nothing to make weight. The Tennessee State Athletic Commission also stopped the process a number of times to check the scales given how regularly the fighters were struggling to make weight.
