UFC Lightweight champion Anthony Pettis Jr. faces Gilbert Melendez in Las Vegas this weekend. But before he steps foot in the ring he's going to need to drop some weight-- 10 lbs. to be exact- fast. So how is the mixed martial arts fighter going to pull that off? He explained his tactic during Good Day New York. "Water cut. It's when you overload your body with water, take out all the sodium to get all that water weight down to make weight for weigh in," said Pettis. You can catch the action LIVE from Mandalay Bay, Saturday on Pay-per-View.
