The festivities took place at Chicago Theatre. The nearby United Center, meanwhile, hosts Saturday's network-televised event.
Among those weighing in were UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson (125 pounds) and challenger John Dodson (124), who headline the event. Donning a Pop Rocks T-shirt and holding a bag of the candy in his mouth, Dodson made the 125-pound limit with a pound to spare.

Sorry it's been a VERY long day. With our wedding only a few weeks away, we are running around like fools right now.
Yeah Cat posts the weigh ins, I post the pictures. I just completely glossed over his. Again I'm dead tired. And no I didn't. He had what I think were Pop Rocks in his mouth, a package of them.
