Ultimate Fighting Championship Welterweight Champion Georges St-Pierre told La Presse that he believes he weighed in at 170.4 lbs.
So actually that means Georges St-Pierre was officially 0.4 lbs over the normal Championship limit of 170 lbs. St-Pierre was quiet for quite a long time but now he spoke to press and told them that he believed his weight was 170.4 lbs.
Here a rough translation of the report (via Bloody Elbow):
They came to us just before the weigh-ins and even I was surprised. They told us they were going to be rounding (down to the nearest pound). I was as surprised as Nick Diaz," St. Pierre said Thursday in an interview with The Associated Press.
GSP said he was not sure of his exact weight, but he believes that it amounted to 170.4 pounds. The Quebec Board then rounded his weight down to 170 pounds, the limit for the March 16 bout.

Wow, just as people were starting to forget the weigh-in controversy, St-Pierre ignites the fire!
