Jorge Masvidal outweighed Nate Diaz by nearly fifteen pounds the night of their boxing match
Masvidal’s weight gain
On the day of weigh-ins, Masvidal came in at 175.2 lbs. However, on fight night, he was able to balloon up to 204.1 lbs. By comparison, Diaz weighted in at 175.6 lbs on weigh-ins. Then, on fight night, he went up to just 190.2 lbs.
It doesn’t appear as if there are going to be any real sanctions made, but it’s certainly a notable shift. ‘Gamebred’ has made it known that he feels as if Diaz gained an advantage from the judges due to the fight being in his home state. Alas, on the scorecards, Jorge simply wasn’t able to do enough to overcome his foe.
There have been some talks of a rematch in the media but for now, it appears as if these two rivals will be heading their separate ways.
What do you make of the weigh-in results for both men? Will we ever see a second boxing match between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz? Let us know your thoughts, BJPENN Nation!
