UFC Fight Night 95 Weigh-Ins: Cyborg Makes Weight

UFC Fight Night 95 is on our doorstep. Cris Cyborg will fight on home turf in Brasilia, Brazil as she takes on Muay Thai veteran and UFC debutante Lina Lansberg in the main event. Entering the top slot in Brazil doesn’t come without a price for Cyborg, who is currently deep in to a nasty 30-pound weigh cut to make 140 pounds. The catchweight headliner is backed up by a featherweight clash that features former bantamweight boss Renan Barao against Phillipe Nover.

The Brazilian ‘Baron’ had a tough debut at 145 pounds as he lost the decision to Jeremy Stephens last time out. Now without a win since his submission over Mitch Gagnon, Barao will need to step it up against the BJJ black belt Nover. In the heavyweight division Roy Nelson will battle Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva. ‘Big Country’ has that brutal KO power and Silva’s form recently would indicate a likely finish in this clash, but you never know.

Weigh-In Traditional Show is at 6PM ET

The weigh-ins traditional show starts at 6 PM ET, but if you check in after 10 AM Et we’ll have the updated results from the early weigh-ins. Check out the live stream courtesy of the UFC:
