On right now on ESPN News.

Rashad and Tito staredown looked heated.

EDIT: Damn, that was short, I thought they were going to show all the weigh ins. No idea why Nate came in so low at 182. Weird.

Copied from UFCjunkie.com:

MAIN CARD

Champion Anderson Silva (184.5) vs. Nate Marquardt (182.5) for middleweight title
Champion Sean Sherk (154.5) vs. Hermes Franca (154.5) for lightweight title
Rashad Evans (204) vs. Tito Ortiz (205.5)
Heath Herring (259) vs. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira (240.5)
Kenny Florian (155.5) vs. Alvin Robinson (156)

UNDERCARD

Stephan Bonnar (204.5) vs. Mike Nickels (205.5)
Jason Gilliam (171) vs. Chris Lytle (169.5)
Jorge Gurgel (155.5) vs. Diego Saraiva (155)
Mark Bocek (154.5) vs. Frank Edgar (154.5)

Next time guys go to Sympatico/MSN sports section, because they show ALL the weigh ins, not just the main card. After the prelim weigh ins Rogan/the crowd was pissed because they had to wait 2 min until ESPN was ready for the feed.

I watched the live feed off UFC.com and saw all of the weighins..prelims included. Dunno if thats the same thing you are talking about though.

yep UFC.com shows the same content. I just avoid going there because their servers can get bogged down.

I thought Nate looked really solid, especially for being 2.5 pounds under.

I thought Florian looked bad also.

Nog's been saying he was gonna come in at 235-240. He believes the extra weight will help him in the ring.

As far as Ken-Flo... I can't remember looking at him before and thinking "man does that guy look ripped!"

I'd be more surprised if Kenny DIDN'T look like a holocaust survivor

Also wanted to add... did anyone else find it INSANELY annoying how looooong it took Tito to get out of his Punishment clothes then get dressed again?
