Champion Georges St-Pierre, Johny Hendricks make weight ahead of UFC 167
LAS VEGAS, Nev. – A relaxed-looking Georges St-Pierre made weight Friday in advance of his showdown with No. 1 contender Johny (Bigg Rigg) Hendricks at UFC 167.
The 32-year-old champion from Montreal raced on stage to cheers of “GSP, GSP” at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, weighing in at the welterweight limit of 170 pounds.
Hendricks also weighed in at 170.
Both men smiled as they posed opposite each other, then hugged.
Hendricks promised to knock St-Pierre out Saturday night. St-Pierre told the audience not to blink.
