Despite 20lb+ Cuts At Copa Podio, All Athletes Make Weight
All athletes are on weight for Saturday’s Copa Podio event. The 10-man Lightweight Grand Prix and five superfights are set with all of the fighters making weight on the first attempt. 

The three athletes making the biggest cut were Patrick Gaudio, who was over 90kg (~200lb) just two weeks ago when he got the last minute call to replace his teammate Jaime Canuto, Davi Ramos and Dillon Danis, both cutting over 10kg (22lb) in weight but arriving on the scale at exactly 77kg. 

After the hoo-hah of working with a nutritionist and cutting coke from his diet, defending lightweight GP champion Leandro Lo made weight easily at a trim 76.7kg.
