Heavyweight Chris Barnett failed to make the 266lb weight limit for his fight against Jake Collier at UFC 279 on Saturday night.
Barnett was the last fighter to step on the scales with just 10 minutes remaining of Friday's two-hour window. He weighed 1.5lb over the heavyweight limit and opted not to try to lose the remaining weight in the allotted extra hour.
He was the FIFTH fighter to fail to make weight with headline act Khamzat Chimaev the most high-profile, coming in 7.5lb heavy for his clash with Nate Diaz. Macy Chiasson and Irene Aldana both missed weight ahead of their fight which will now be a 140lb catchweight bout. Hakeem Dawodu was also overweight and opted not to attempt to shift the extra pounds.
