Video Shows D.C. Going Through Rough Weight Cut Before Weigh-Ins

Daniel Cormier stepped onto the scales with little time to spare on Friday morning at the “UFC 210” early weigh-ins, and actually missed weight in his first attempt. Cormier tipped the scales at 206.2, which is 1.2 pounds over the light heavyweight limit for champions. It was obvious Cormier was frustrated that he missed weight, but these behind the scenes clips show just how hard Cormier had worked to cut weight previous to the weigh-ins.

The video above was taken from Luke Rockhold’s Instagram stories, and he mentions this is why he doesn’t miss cutting weight before showing Cormier on the ground, exhausted.
