A Bellator 180 preliminary card matchup between Matt Rizzo and Sergio da Silva was supposed to be contested at a 130 lbs catchweight. Da Silva was extremely over the limit, coming in at 137.6 lbs. It’s not that he merely missed weight, but it’s his humorous effort to try and not-so-subtly game the system in hopes that he’d be able to make 130.
