Now I don't know if the Bestiarium trumps TFoR in canon so correct me if that is the case.
It depends on how you view the Book re-issues; whether they are "new canon" or not. Within specific canon tiers, new trumps old. So new games trump older games, new books (Or new published media) trump older books but books can never trump games as they are in different tiers, no matter how new the book is and how old the game is - unless the writers specifically say that it is a retcon.
But as they are both published media, and as the Bestiarium came out with Halo 3 whilst TFoR came out in 2001, Bestiarium would be the new canon. But like I said, it depends if you view the new TFoR issue (The Tor print) as being like a new book that would trump all the others in terms of latest canon.
In the end it doesn't matter though, because the Essential Visual Guide, that was released last month, affirms the number that the Bestiarium gave for John.

So if the Bestiarium trumps TFoR in canon weight then fair play but just because this guy is using information that has been changed for no reason it's not his fault he still thinks TFoR is right.
I did say though that the Visual Guide ultimately affirmed it, with the Bestiarium only being secondary evidence.
Fair play dude. I understand what you mean. In that case I guess John's weight has indeed been changed. Cheers for clearing that up for me (and hopefully the other guy).
