53-year-old fighter loses it when opponent misses weight by 28 pounds


In what is unquestionably one of the strangest weigh-in confrontations you’ll ever see, 53-year-old Japanese fighter Shinobu Kandori went off on Brazilian fighter Gabi Garcia, who missed weight for a bout at the RIZIN Fighting World GP 2017 by 28 pounds.
Kandori, a former professional wrestler and politician, was supposed to face Garcia on December 29th in Saitama in an openweight bout with a limit of 209 pounds. According to Bleacher Report, Kandori weighed in at 162 pounds – but Garcia wasn’t even close, weighing in at 237 pounds. When Garcia’s weight was announced, Kandori was understandably upset.
