Silva's weight

Does anyone know what Silva weighed in at for the open weight Grand Prix? In the picture on Sherdog's home page he looked close to 220 and I know he walks around usually at a bit over 210.

ya, for someone who doesn't cut as much weight as others in his weightclass (like arona) he has fought some REAL GOOD heavies like cc, hunt, and now fuji

As polish machine already stated, he was 219. During his first interview after the announcement was made that he would participate in the OWGP, he said he was 207, so he gained 12 pounds for this fights. And yeah, I give Wand a lot of props for not being a big weight cutter and facing HW's at the same time.

Either way he's a lot bigger than he was in his first professional fights. What was he then, like 170 pounds???
