UFC 332 weigh-in results: 1 main card fighter misses weight; Natalia Silva vs. Wang Cong official

Esteban Ribovics has been fined 20% of his purse after missing weight for his lightweight showdown against King Green on Saturday’s UFC 332 main card.

Natalia Silva and Wang Cong made weight for their highly anticipated main card bout at UFC 332 in Salt Lake City. Silva, the top-ranked contender, weighed in at 125 pounds, while Wang Cong entered the scale at a half-pound lighter, at 124.5 pounds. The two women successfully passed the official weigh-ins, putting the title bout on the official program.

However, not everyone made weight on Friday's official weigh-ins. Esteban Ribovics, facing King Green, missed weight by a half-pound and received a 20% purse fine for the infringement. The main event remains intact, with Silva facing Wang Cong in the women's flyweight championship on Saturday.
