UFC Fight Night 231 weigh-in results: Three miss marks in Sao Paulo, two fights scrapped

Official weigh-ins for UFC Fight Night 231 took place Friday, and three fighters missed their marks – which led to two fight cancellations.

Ismael Bonfim (19-4 MMA, 1-1 UFC) was set to open the main card at lightweight against Vinc Pichel (14-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC), but Bonfim missed the non-title limit by 3.5 pounds at 159.5. Pichel was the last fighter to come to the scale during the two-hour official window and missed the mark, as well, at 157 pounds. He was given an extra hour to cut the additional weight, though, and made weight at 155.5 pounds. After that, though, the fight was canceled, presumably due to Bonfim’s miss.
