Daniel Cormier wonders if Julianna Pena was just playing a game weighing in last

Julianna Pena was the last fighter to step on the scales at the official UFC 277 weigh-ins. The women's bantamweight champion weighed in at 134.5 lbs, i.e., half a pound below the championship limit. However, her absence until the very last minute had questioning the quality of her cut. During the official UFC weigh-in show, he said: "To the minute. Final minute. Maybe the champ is just playing a game, like 'Hey guys, you gonna wait for me. It's my show, you're going to wait for me.' I dunno, she's a half pound under weight. If you're a half pound under weight you could have did that forty-five minutes ago. But if she's not ... she didn't look that bad, but if she's not, now she's given Amanda [Nunes] a two hour head start."
