Johny Hendricks misses weight at middleweight at UFC Fight Night in Oklahoma

Former UFC champion Johny Hendricks has failed to make weight again, this time while competing as a middleweight for his bout this weekend against Tim Boetsch.

Hendricks hit the scale at 188-pounds — a full two pounds over the limit for middleweight in a non-title fight — during the early weigh-ins on Saturday morning.

Hendricks has suffered through some brutal weight cuts during his career but primarily while he was competing at 170 pounds, which is what prompted his move up to a new division in the first place.

Hendricks missed weight twice in the UFC in his final two bouts at welterweight before moving up to the 185-pound division.
