Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is roughly 24 hours away from its UFC Fight Night 125: “Machida vs. Anders” mixed martial arts (MMA) event, locked and loaded for this Sat. night (Feb. 3, 2018) inside Mangueirinho Gymnasium in Belem, Brazil.

And we’re not off to a great start.

That’s because undefeated middleweight up-and-comer Eryk Anders, who meets Lyoto Machida in the five-round main event on FOX Sports 1, missed weight earlier this morning, tipping the scale at 187.9.

In addition, Pedro Munhoz failed to hit the bantamweight limit at 140 pounds, while Michel Prazeres came in way over the lightweight mark at 161. All three fighters were fined 20-percent of their purses, payable to their opponents.
