Dana White has put his foot down over the Anthony Johnson weight cut issues by confirming that "Rumble" will be banned from the UFC should he not make weight vs Phil Davis at UFC 172!
There's a lot at stake for Anthony 'Rumble' Johnson this Friday.
He's scheduled to face Phil Davis this Saturday in the UFC 172 co-main event, but he needs to make the contracted weight limit first. Something he's failed to do on numerous occasions with the UFC.
During today's media event, Dana White touched on the importance of Johnson hitting the mark.
Marc Raimondi of FOX Sports tweeted out the following:
Dana White said if Anthony Johnson misses weight tomorrow, he'll be cut and never brought back to the UFC.

Anthony Johnson hasn't released a statement regarding the issue but his training crew said that he is going to make weight for the fight and that he is going to beat Phil Davis for sure.
