UFC Vegas 100 weigh-in results: Short-notice newcomer misses by 3 pounds, one bout cancelled

Zach Scroggin failed to make a strong first impression ahead of his UFC debut.

The welterweight newcomer is stepping in on just four days’ notice for Nicolas Dalby to fight Elizeu Zaleski at UFC Vegas 100 this Saturday and it appears the short-notice booking wasn’t enough time for him to cut properly as he registered at 174 pounds at Friday’s official weigh-ins. Scroggin’s was three pounds over the limit for a non-title fight, which includes a one-pound allowance.

It is not yet known if the bout will proceed as a catchweight, and if so, what percentage of Scroggin’s purse will be forfeited as penalty.

Scroggin wasn’t the only fighter to miss weight. Bantamweight Melissa Mullins was the final fighter to step to the scale and she came in at 137, one pound over the bantamweight limit. The status of her bout with Klaudia Sygula is also still to be determined.

Welterweight headliners Neil Magny (171) and Carlos Prates (170.5) successfully weighed in without issue.

In 34 UFC bookings, Magny has never failed to make weight. He also holds the record for most wins by a welterweight in the promotion’s history at 22.

Shortly after the conclusion of the official weigh-ins, the UFC announced that Ricky Turcios vs. Benardo Sopaj has been cancelled due to a Turcios medical issue.
