There are a few weight misses, some bigger than others, but the card is largely moving along smoothly. As far as we know now, the fighters that missed weight will still be competing but will be fined a percentage of their purse. The fight that is on the thinnest ice here is between Anshul Jubli and Mike Breeden, who came in 3.5 pounds over weight.

This fight features a highly-anticipated prospect, the undefeated Jubli, who has a lot of support on Yas island right now. Hopefully Breeden will be cleared to compete.
