SAN JOSE, Calif. – The official weigh-ins are in the books for Saturday’s Bellator 206.

Check out our exclusive photo gallery below and video highlights above from Bellator 206 official weigh-ins, which took place today at the host hotel in San Jose.

In the main event, Bellator promotes its first champ vs. champ superfight as middleweight titleholder Gegard Mousasi (44-6-2 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) defends against welterweight kingpin Rory MacDonald (20-4 MMA, 2-0 BMMA). Both fighters hit their marks, with MacDonald one-tenth of a pound under the middleweight title limit.

Co-main event rivals Quinton Jackson (37-13 MMA, 4-2 BMMA) and Wanderlei Silva (35-13-1 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) took the prize for the biggest disparity between opponents, with Jackson coming in nearly 28 heavier than Silva in a heavyweight bout.

One preliminary-card fighter – Ricky Abdelaziz – came in overweight and forfeited 20 percent of his purse.
