The octagon will return to the state of Arizona tomorrow night for UFC Phoenix, a thirteen-bout fight card headlined by Francis Ngannou vs. Cain Velasquez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All 26 fighters participating at tomorrow night’s UFC Phoenix event stepped on the scales this morning, but only 23 made their respective weights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jessica Penne<\/a> missed weight by two pounds (118 lbs) for her strawweight bout with Jodie Esquibel (115.5 lbs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Former UFC bantamweight champion Renan Barao<\/a>, who has had his struggles with weight cuts in the past, once again failed to make the 136-pound bantamweight limit today. Barao weighed in at 138-pounds for the fight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Barao and Penne will be fined twenty percent of their respective fight purses for missing weight at UFC Phoenix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manny Bermudez was the third and final fighter to miss weight for tomorrow evening’s highly anticipated event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bermudez came in at a whopping 140-pounds for his slated bantamweight tilt with Benito Lopez (135.5 lbs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manny Bermudez will be fined 30 percent of his UFC Phoenix fight purse for the botched weight cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news for fight fans is that event headliners Francis Ngannou and Cain Velasquez<\/a> both made weight for their highly anticipated showdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
