Lokdog scares

It's no secret that Lokdog has trouble competing in the bantamweight division. One of the strongest and heaviest fighters in the category, the Brazilian appeared at the ceremony with an apathetic expression. But, despite the suffering, the athlete weighed in at 61,6 kg, staying within the division's limit. Upon stepping off the scale, the relieved bad boy celebrated silently, without making a fuss, and walked slowly.

On the other hand, Bautista was in excellent health. The first to weigh in, the American registered 61,4 kg on the scale, not appearing to have suffered from the weight cut.

Much lighter mesh

With Malhadinho, the opposite happened. The Brazilian, small by heavyweight standards (up to 120,2 kg), is shocking when he comes in well below the category limit, and this time was no different. Naturally, the athlete performed well and weighed 109,3 kg, that is, ten kilos less than the limit. Rizvan Kuniev, your opponent.

Recurring problem

A member of the flyweight division (up to 57 kg), Ronda was the last to appear at the ceremony, thus confirming the suspicion of a problem with the weight cut. The Brazilian weighed in at 57,6 kg. It's worth noting that Eduarda competed in the strawweight division (up to 52,2 kg) and, as she had been underperforming at weigh-ins, she was invited to move up a weight class.
