Escalated to the UFC 303, which takes place this Saturday (29), in Las Vegas (USA), athletes need to go through the appointment with the scales before stepping into the octagon at the weekend. This Friday (28), starting at 13pm (Brasília time), the official weigh-in will take place to accredit the fighters for the show. Alex Poatán e Diego lopes are highlights of the event.
Called in a hurry to assume the leading role in the event, which would previously have been Conor McGregor, Alex Poatán holds the second clash of the season. The athlete seeks to defend the light heavyweight belt (up to 93kg.) in a rematch with Jiri Prochazka.
Diego lopes was another Brazilian to be included in the show two weeks in advance. The featherweight (up to 65,7kg) faces Brian ortega in a confrontation that could propel him to the top 5 in the category.
Former challenger for the bantamweight belt (up to 61,2kg.), Mayra Sheetara holds its first clash since the defeat against Rachel Pennington in a valid fight for the group's belt. The miner measures strength with Macy chiasson.
Welterweight promise (up to 77,1kg.), Ian Gary will be an opponent of Michael Page in the second half of the show. The Irishman is trying to maintain his unbeaten record in his career and defend his position in the top 10 of the division.
In addition to Poatan, Diego and Sheetara, Brazil has two more representatives. Jean Silva and Vinicius Oliveira appear on the preliminary card.
