UFC Fight Night 240 weigh-in results: Four athletes miss weight, one bout canceled

LAS VEGAS – MMA Junkie was on-scene and reporting from Friday’s official UFC Fight Night 240 (ESPN+) fighter weigh-ins at the UFC Apex.

Among those weighing in were Brendan Allen (23-5 MMA, 11-2 UFC) and Chris Curtis (31-10 MMA, 5-2 UFC), who meet in the middleweight main event rematch. Both headliners did their jobs on the scale, but some undercard athletes didn’t keep it as professional.

Four fighters, including , Alexander Hernandez (14-7 MMA, 6-6 UFC), who fights Damon Jackson (22-6-1 MMA, 5-4-1 UFC) in the featherweight co-feature, were heavy on the scale. That also includes Cynthia Calvillo (9-6-1 MMA, 6-6-1 UFC), who is riding a five-fight losing skid and missed weight for the third time at strawweight for her prelim bout with Piera Rodriguez (9-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC). The matchup was subsequently canceled.
