Fighters Who Missed Weight
Two fighters failed to hit their official limits during the weigh-in session.
Weight Miss Details
| Fighter | Weight | Opponent | Limit Issue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ravena Oliveira | 116.5 lbs | Shanelle Dyer | Missed by 0.5 lbs |
| Luana Carolina | 144 lbs | Melissa Mullins | Missed by 8 lbs |
Oliveira’s miss was relatively small and the fight may still proceed depending on agreements between the teams.
However, Carolina’s weight was 8 pounds over the limit, which led to a major issue for the scheduled bout.
Fight Cancelled After Major Weight Miss
The bout between Luana Carolina and Melissa Mullins has been cancelled after Carolina missed weight by a large margin.
In UFC rules, such a significant difference can make a fight unsafe or unfair, which often results in the fight being removed from the card.
Fighters who miss weight can face financial penalties, usually giving a portion of their fight purse to their opponent. In some cases, fights continue as catchweight bouts if both sides agree.
Despite the weigh-in issues, most of the scheduled fights remain intact and fans can expect the majority of the fighters listed above to compete at UFC Fight Night 270 in London, barring any last-minute changes.
