#UFC205: Kelvin Gastelum misses weight - Funny reactions galore on Twitter
THE UFC 205 card took a big blow last night at the weigh ins when Kelvin Gastelum, who was supposed to face Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone at the event, missed weight and announced that he won’t be fighting.
Cerrone, who was initially slated to face Robbie Lawler at the event, got Gastelum as his opponent after Lawler pulled out due to undisclosed reasons. The news ended up kicking off a storm in social media and here is how Twitter reacted.
These were the tweets from Gastelum
I will not be fighting @Cowboycerrone 2morrow on account that I couldn't make the wght limit. I apologize 2 cowboy ure a legend. God bless.

Open-weight tourney with Gastelum, Alves, Oliveira and Lineker. Winner keeps his job and gets the opportunity screw up a future card.
