Nick Diaz leads with his elbow, champion GSP unfazed at UFC 158 weigh-in

MONTREAL – Nick Diaz led with his elbow but UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre was unfazed Friday at the UFC 158 weigh-in.

A snarling Diaz went first, tipping the scales at 169 pounds.

A business-like St-Pierre went next, weighing in at 170.

The champion wasted no time heading to Diaz and the side of the stage for the traditional pose. Diaz then shoved an elbow GSP’s way and UFC president Dana White stepped in between them.

The two face off Saturday night at the Bell Centre.
