Banned Weigh In was terrible

One of the most disorganized Weigh Ins I've ever seen in my life.

Messing up the fighters hometowns, pronouncing names wrong, miscommunications, passing of the microphone to Donald Trump to announce Sylvia's weight.

Just a total clusterfuck.


I just hope the actual event goes smoothly

Here is the video

I agree, what a total disaster. Hopefully, not a preview of the disorganization to come.

I thought it was terrible but i'm sure it will get better handing the mic to Donald Trump was the biggest ass kissing move i've ever seen and the whole thing was sloppy.

i think they need an ex-fighter or something doing these announcements at the weigh-ins instead of Buffer.

Michael Buffer is just terrible. I could do a better job and I don't even have an awesome voice.

It didn't seem too bad, the one thing I noticed was that there was no music. If it had some generic churning nu-metal all the time like the UFC, then no one would notice any of the mistakes or lack of fluidity.

I hope Buffer practices those names while the fights are going on later, this just looked terrible.

I agree that was just terrible. Not only did they **** up every1's name. It looked like a mess. They did it in some dark dungeon it looked like.

This is just my opinion but i hate how Trump is involved with this. Hes just trying to make more money. Because he isnt rich enough you know. I hope the event tonight atleast looks good. I hope it looks similar to the PRIDE events.
