UFC 333 weigh-in results: Championship bouts set, prelim fighter misses weight by almost 5 pounds
Nicolle Caliari missed weight by a lot ahead of UFC 333
Four championship fighters, Alexander Volkanovski, Petr Yan, Merab Dvalishvili, and Movsar Evloev, successfully made weight for the main event bouts at UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi. Volkanovski, defending his featherweight title, weighed in at 144.5 pounds, while Evloev registered at the exact 145 pounds. Yan and Dvalishvili both made the 135-pound weight limit for their co-main event trilogy match.
However, the preliminary strawweight bout between Nicolle Caliari and Iasmin Lucindo did not go as smoothly. Caliari weighed in significantly over the 115-pound limit, registering 120.5 pounds, 4.5 pounds above the limit. As a result, her fight will proceed at a catchweight, with Caliari forfeiting 30 percent of her purse as a penalty for missing weight.
