Fighters took the final step in preparation for tomorrow’s UFC 85 "Bedlam" and hit the scales today to weigh in at the O2 Arena in London, England.

The story of the day was Matt Hughes opponent for tomorrow nights main event, Thiago Alves, who failed to make the required 170lb weight limit. Alves weighed in 4lbs over and as a result will meet the former two time welterweight champ at a catch weight of 174 pounds at tomorrow’s event.

 

“Tomorrow night is gonna be a war,” said Alves, 174. “You’re gonna see the best ‘Pitbull’ ever and I’m gonna knock him out.”

One of the most anticipated match ups for tomorrow night’s event is a welterweight battle between Mike "Quick" Swick and "The Irish Hand Grenade" Marcus Davis. Swick is looking to string together two wins in a row while Davis looks to extend his amazing 6 fight win streak in the UFC to seven.
