UFC Vegas 26: Rodriguez vs. Waterson Weigh-In Results & Preview
May 7, 2021
The UFC Vegas 26 weigh-ins are complete. While the main card remains untouched, there were two fights pulled from the lineup.
Although every fight on the main card remains intact, there was still a miss from Diego Ferreira, who will be competing against Gregor Gillespie. Ferreira will be fined 30% of his purse, but the bout will go forward as planned. The same cannot be said for Ryan Benoit’s flyweight bout against Zarrukh Adashev. After Benoit weighed three pounds over the limit, he was ruled out of the bout. Additionally, Philipe Lens was not medically cleared to compete.
