Romero Cotton faces Willie Whitehead in at Bellator 204 on Friday in Sioux Falls, S.D.
Bellator MMA


Willie Whitehead came in way over the middleweight limit for his upcoming bout at Bellator 204, but it was close enough for opponent Romero Cotton and the South Dakota Athletic Commission.

At the weigh-ins for Friday’s Bellator event at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, Whitehead tipped the scales at 200.2 pounds, well over the 185-pound limit (including the extra one-pound allowance). Despite the massive miss, SDAC rules dictate that a bout will only be automatically called off if a fighter is “ten percent above the originally scheduled weight class” (except for the super heavyweight division).

I'm amazed no reasons for this have been reported. crazy that the fight is going ahead

Disgusting. If the commission won't call the fight off then the promoters need to. Is this random, no-name fight worth exposing how scummy your promotion really is?

 

[Robbie Hart]

That’s a fair fight.......it’s good they’re letting the fight go on, fuck weight classes, be a man and fight Brock while you’re at it

Big boy got knocked out in the first round.

No gif available because it's Bellator and no one cares.
