The UFC 319 weigh-ins didn’t take place without some drama, and one fight has been canned as a result.

For the most part, the weigh-ins actually went smoothly. The main event middleweight title fight remains intact, as champion Dricus du Plessis weighed in at 185 pounds, while Khamzat Chimaev tipped the scales at 183 pounds. Other fighters on the main card also managed to hit their targets.

Bryan Battle was the lone athlete who had difficulty on the scale. He was scheduled to face Nursulton Ruziboev on the preliminary portion of UFC 319. That plan went awry when Battle missed the middleweight limit for a non-title bout by four pounds. Meanwhile, Ruziboev clocked in at 186 pounds.

This is the third time Battle has missed weight under the UFC banner.

As a result of Battle’s miss on the scale, the fight has been cancelled. Ruziboev took to his Instagram account to criticize Battle for failing to make the contracted weight.

“Instead of talking too much, you need to make weight first,” Ruziboev said. “This is a professional sport, blondie.”
