MONTREAL - UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and interim title-holder Carlos (Natural Born Killer) Condit both made weight Friday in advance of UFC 154.

St-Pierre (22-2) weighed in at the 170-pound limit while Condit (28-5) was at 169.

Condit, a 28-year-old from Albuquerque, N.M., was greeted with some boos and chants of GSP when he came on stage first at a local nightclub. A smiling St-Pierre came on next, to cheers and more chants from his home-town crowd.

After guzzling back some water, the two fighters exchanged a cordial handshake and then posed facing each other on the side of the stage.

Saturday's fight at the Bell Centre is the first for St-Pierre in almost 19 months due to a knee injury.
