Barely a year removed from his interim title shot against legendary former champ Jon Jones, Ovince St. Preux had his back against the wall following three straight losses heading into his bout with Marcos Rogerio de Lima at last night’s UFC Fight Night 108 from his adopted home state of Tennessee.
The pressure was compounded by the fact that de Lima missed weight by a whopping four pounds, raising questions as to if he actually had trouble making weight or just wanted to have the biggest size advantage possible for the bout.
In the end it didn’t matter, however, because after some heavy body kicks from his foe in the first round, St. Preux settled into a groove in the second frame to batter and bloody a grounded de Lima. The Brazilian slugger then chose to hold on to a headlock from bottom half guard, a decision we’ve seen one of St. Preux’s adversaries pay for dear in a previous bout. Not surprisingly, the hometown favorite locked on his patented Von Flue choke to get the win and some loud chants of “OSP” to go with it.
Watch the highlights of his pivotal comeback win:

Another day, another UFC fighter misses weight.
That was the case at today’s (Fri., April 21, 2017) UFC Fight Night 108 early weigh-ins, where light heavyweight Marcos Rogerio de Lima weighed in at 210 pounds – a whopping four pounds over the light heavyweight non-title limit – for his bout versus Ovince St. Preux tomorrow night from Nashville, Tennessee.
It wasn’t the first time that Lima has been off on the scale, as he missed weight by 3.5 pounds before his win over Jeremy Kimball at January’s UFC on FOX 23, prompting his employers to fine him 30 percent of his purse, 10 percent more than the customary 20 percent. According to a report from MMA Fighting, the UFC has the authority to increase the amount of a fighter’s fine if they so choose:
“Athletes that miss weight are subject to a penalty of their purse at the discretion of the promotion and the state athletic commission. As this was Lima’s second consecutive weight management issue, the penalty was increased to 30 percent, which was agreed to by all parties involved. Each penalty is reviewed and handled on a case-by-case basis.”
St. Preux came in on point at 206 pounds, and the bout will go on as a catchweight bout, but it’s important to note that “OSP” will come into the fight with at least something of a minor disadvantage in a fight he badly needs to win after dropping three straight bouts in the octagon.
The UFC’s problems with weight cutting and their new earlier time continue, although it’s far from guaranteed de Lima would have been able to drop another four pounds before this evening’s ceremonial weigh-ins anyway.
Does the punishment fit the crime for de Lima? Does he desevre even more of a fine?
