The early weigh-ins for UFC Vegas 2 are in the books, but the event did not go off without hitch. Three fighters came in heavy for Saturday’s event, and one fighter has had to withdraw.
Jessica Eye, who is booked to fight Cynthia Calvillo in the headliner, missed weight for the contest by half-a-pound.
Karl Roberson, who is scheduled to fight Marvin Vettori in the co-main event, missed weight by over four pounds. The middleweight was forced out of a scheduled fight with Vettori last month, due to complications he incurred in his weight cut.
UFC newcomer Zarrukh Adashev was also several pounds over for a short notice, bantamweight with Tyson Nam.
Meanwhile, Darrick Minner has been forced to withdraw from the card, due to medical issues he incurred during his weight cut. Minner had been scheduled to fight featherweight Jordan Griffin.
