Check out the results from today’s early and official UFC on ESPN+ 28 fighter weigh-ins.
The early weigh-ins took place at the UFC host hotel in Brasilia, Brazil. Due to the ongoing coronavirus outbreak, the event was closed to the public.
UFC on ESPN+ 28 takes place Saturday at Ginasio Nilson Nelson in Brasilia and will also be held without a live audience. The card airs on ESPN and streams on ESPN+.
In the main event, Kevin Lee (18-5 MMA, 11-5 UFC) is scheduled to take on Brazil’s Charles Oliveira (28-8 MMA, 16-8 UFC) in a lightweight showdown. However he missed weight on his first attempt, registering 158.5 pounds and is currently being evaluated to determine whether he will be given an additional hour to lose the remaining 2.5 pounds needed to make the non-title limit.
Abatido, Kevin Lee pediu a toalha, mas estourou 1,1kg. Tem uma hora para tentar cortar, mas precisa de aprovação da comissão atlética. #feedmma pic.twitter.com/kli8erda5T
