Making weight is always hard. But thinking you’re on weight, then missing weight, just to have to go lose more weight after you’ve lost your initial sweat is a living nightmare both physically and mentally. #ufc274

Wonder if he still wants to fight at 145. I have nothing against the champ. But this is a disgrace. And I honestly feel most for Justin. What an absolute let down for everyone in the division. #sadday

Anyway, keep your head up Charles and good luck tomorrow, we all know you’re champ for a reason. And I’m looking to fight the winner of this fight, either for vacant title or new LW champion 🏆

If the scale being heavy is true that cannot happen! Unfortunate turn at UFC 274!

If Justin Gaethje becomes the Lightweight Champion tomorrow night, there’s a strong possibility that Conor McGregor challenges him for the title.

Even if Charles Oliveira wins, Conor can still challenge him for vacant lightweight title.
