The UFC’s final show in 2013 is this weekend and today they held their weigh-ins to make the fights official. There are two title fights on the card with Anderson Silva trying to reclaim his Middleweight title and Miesha Tate and Ronda Rousey fighting for the UFC Women’s Bantamweight title.

Update: Brandao was fined 25% of his purse for his miss.
Last two big misses were Rampage and Anthony Johnson. I expect Brandao to lose this one and be out of the UFC just like those two.
Wow Diego Brandao was way off!
Hope Brandao gets smashed… Poirier had a right to be pissed, Brandao only made it to 151.5 on his second attempt!
Brandao should be black balled from feather weight .
