Gregory Rodrigues is one of the biggest middleweights on the entire UFC roster, but he barely outweighed Anthony \u201cFluffy\u201d Hernandez for their five-round main event at UFC Sacramento this past Saturday night.<\/p>\n
On Monday, the California State Athletic Commission shared the fight night weights for all of the athletes on the card with MMA Fighting. The commission started tracking fight night weights in an effort to curb extreme weight cutting in combat sports.<\/p>\n

Further down the card, Reinier de Ridder made his light heavyweight debut in the UFC after previously competing at 185 pounds in the promotion. On Friday, de Ridder hit the scale at 205 pounds exactly before adding 16.8 pounds to weigh 221.8 pounds for fight night.<\/p>\n
His opponent Roman Dolidze was 206 pounds on Friday before adding 20.2 pounds to weigh 226.2 pounds for the fight on Saturday.<\/p>\n
