Joe Stevenson isn't the only former lightweight who's heading to featherweight for UFC on Versus 4.
UFC officials today announced that former lightweight contender Tyson Griffin (14-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) is following through with a previously announced drop in weight and will meet featherweight Manny Gamburyan (11-5 MMA, 2-3 UFC) at the summer event.

Great fight. I've been wondering who Manny would fight next.

Deathsquad bitches.
Tough first fight at featherweight
And with 3 losses. Tyson has gotta bring his A game
Certainly another loss and UFC would prolly drop Griffin and I could see it happening because Manny is a tough opponent.
these guys cutting to 145 lately are going to have serious problems, especially big 155ers like tyson
Good night, Tyson.
I got Tyson Griffin by early stoppage.
This fight reminds me of Manny vs Mike Brown.....I see Tyson going nighty-nite.

You're right about this.
How the hell is he going to do this? He cuts an ENORMOUS amount of weight to make LW. Some friends of mine that have trained with him at ATT say he cuts as much a 30 lbs to make 155. 30 lbs is a ton for guys that small!
