SAN JOSE, Calif. – Friday’s official “UFC 139: Shogun vs. Henderson” fighter weigh-ins took place at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., the same location that will host Saturday’s Pay-Per-View fight card. headlined by Mauricio “Shogun” Rua vs. Dan Henderson in a light heavyweight match-up.

A video archive of the UFC 139 weigh-ins will be available in ProMMAnow.com’s UFC Room Friday evening.

All fighters did not make weight and their appeared to be a calibration issue with the scale during the preliminary card weigh-ins. Shamar Bailey came in 2 pounds over the lightweight non-title fight limit. Also, Nick Pace came in a whopping 5 pounds over the bantamweight limit, and his opponent, Miguel Torres, came in 1 pound over.

It was announced that Pace would surrender 20% of his purse. With Torres only 1 pound over, he could likely shed that extra weight during the post-weigh-in grace period to avoid penalty.
