With the final weigh-in going over smoothly, there is nothing that is going to derail UFC 217.
Headliners Michael Bisping (31-7) and Georges St-Pierre (25-2) both cleared the final hurdle at Friday morning's weigh-in, making weight for the UFC's latest event Saturday night at Madison Square Garden.
Bisping, who registered 184.6 lbs on the scale, made sure to chastise his opponent about his weight.
"He looks awful and he looks a little fat," Bisping said of St-Pierre's appearance on the event's promo during an episode of UFC Embedded.
St-Pierre weighed in at 184.4 lbs. and finished the session with a signature pose.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk put a bit of a scare in those in attendance. Jedrzejczyc, who is defending her UFC strawweight championship against challenger Rose Namajunas, didn't show up to the weigh-in until there was under ten minutes left before the 11 a.m. deadline. Ultimately, Jedrzejczyk put any doubt of a cancellation away as she marked in at 115 lbs. Namajunas cleared as well at 114 lbs.
