UFC287 Weigh-in Results: Title Fight Set; 1 Fighter Heavy
Pereira has been perfect inside the Octagon and dispatched his former kickboxing rival in their first mixed martial arts meeting. It wasn't easy, though, as it took a late TKO rally for "Poatan" to claim the belt. The Brazilian will look to dispel any notions of the victory being a fluke in the rematch. Pereira stepped on the scale at 185 pounds on the dot.
The impressive title reign of"The Last Stylebender" came to an end in his prior outing as he was finished by punches in the fifth round. The loss snapped a three-fight win streak for Adesanya , whose only other MMA defeat came in a light heavyweight title fight against. Adesanya looked sharp on the scale and came in at 184.5 pounds for his shot at redemption.
