Filed under: News , UFC , Videos BUFFALO, N.Y. – Daniel Cormier said a discrepancy between scales led to a tense moment at weigh-ins for UFC 210. “I weighed in upstairs and I was like, ‘Man, I’m OK –I’m going to do this,’” Cormier (18-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) told UFC broadcast partner FS1 . “We figured we had it done, (and) the scale was weighing different.” The UFC light heavyweight champion initially missed weight for his fight Saturday at KeyBank Arena in Buffalo, N.Y., coming in 1.2 pounds over for the 205-pound title bout against Anthony Johnson (22-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC). The miss prompted several on site to conclude the bout would be switched to a non-title fight, since early weigh-in rules implemented this past year give competitors only one try to make weight
