This weekend sees the final fight night event before back-to-back pay-per-view blockbusters. Here are the weigh-in results for UFC Vegas 41: Paulo Costa vs Marvin Vettori.
While originally intended to be a middleweight bout, Costa vs Vettori is going to be contested at a light heavyweight of 205lb. That is due entirely to the fact that Paulo revealed that he was 211lb two days before weigh-ins, and could not make the limit, leaving Vettori no choice but to take the fight at a 195lb catchweight, getting 20% of the Brazilian’s purse. Then, in a crazy turn of events, the night before the weigh-ins, the bout was changed again, being moved to a 205lb fight.
Aside from this main event drama, the rest of the card is not particularly strong either, with Grant Dawson vs Ricky Glenn in the co-main event slot. Also featured on the card are Jessica Rose-Clark and Alex Cacares, as well as the return of highly touted prospect Mason Jones.
