Not to dash your hopes of big drama at today’s weigh-in, but everybody made weight for UFC 98. Rashad Evans decided to go with the ‘I ain’t even got time to pose’ approach that you see above, but other than that there wasn’t much excitement to speak of. Full results are after the jump.

That didn’t look like no 5 round snoozer to me…. It went down just like we thought it would with Rashad getting his ass handed to him. I will give Rashad props tho he showed alot of class and gave machida his due when Rogan interviewed him after the fight.
Now all you Rashad fans can stfu for a little while, give Machida his due and hope you’re boy can mount some kinda comeback in the future. Damn that was a SWEET knock out!
