    It's breaking news on sky sports news.

    He was weighed this morning and gained more than 10lbs from yesterday's weigh in.

    I don't really get that - he's done the hard work and cut enough weight for the weigh in yesterday and yet he's ballooned over 10lbs in less than 24hours?

    could he attempt to lose the weight to get under the 10lbs or do they just leave it now

    He'd have to lose about 7lbs. Impossible & dangerous, if attemopted, even if it were allowed.

    Seems like they were close to making Vasquez/Michell before anyway, so I don't think it will make much difference whether he is mandatory or not.
