LAS VEGAS – Luana Santos has no excuses for her recent blunder on the scales.
Ahead of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 233 at the UFC Apex, Santos (7-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) moved up a division to bantamweight, yet still came in heavy. She weighed in at 139 pounds, three pounds over the bantamweight limit. The next day, she defeated Stephanie Egger (8-5 MMA, 3-4 UFC) by unanimous decision.
Santos explained the weight miss after the event and issued an apology to the promotion for her failure on the scale.
