ICYMI: Olivier Aubin-Mercier brings cookies to David Michaud at UFC 186 weigh-ins

MONTREAL – Sometimes, fighter weigh-ins can be tense. Sometimes, there is a threat to start the fight a day early.

And other times, there are cookies.

That was the case for Olivier Aubin-Mercier (5-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC), who decided to bring his post-weigh-in snack to share with opponent David Michaud (8-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC), whom he fights tonight on the UFC 186 prelims.

In case you missed it on Friday, check out our video of Aubin-Mercier bringing cookies for Michaud and UFC President Dana White – who was amused, but didn’t partake. At least he held the container while the two faced off, then hammed it up for the cameras.

The moment was further proof that these day-before weigh-ins don’t always have to be mean spirited. And who doesn’t love a homemade cookie?

UFC 186 takes place tonight at Bell Centre in Montreal. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FOX Sports 1 – including Aubin-Mercier and Michaud – and UFC Fight Pass.
