UFC Fight Night 222 weigh-in results: Priscila Cachoeira’s fight canceled after big miss

LAS VEGAS – MMA Junkie was on scene and reporting live from Friday’s official UFC Fight Night 222 fighter weigh-ins.

The weigh-ins took place at the the UFC host hotel in “Sin City.” The UFC Apex hosts Saturday’s card, which streams on ESPN+.

Among those weighing in were Sergei Pavlovich (17-1 MMA, 5-1 UFC) and Curtis Blaydes (17-3 MMA, 12-3 UFC), who meet in the heavyweight main event. Both men had no issues on the scale.
