UFC 269 weigh-in results: One fighter heavy; Perez vs. Schnell canceled

LAS VEGAS – MMA Junkie was on scene and reporting live from Friday’s official UFC 269 fighter weigh-ins.

The early weigh-ins took place at the UFC Apex and preceded the ceremonial weigh-ins for the fans, which take place at 7 p.m. ET at Park Theater in Las Vegas. The nearby T-Mobile Arena hosts Saturday’s event, which has a main card on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.

Among those weighing in were lightweight champion Charles Oliveira (31-8 MMA, 19-8 UFC) and Dustin Poirier (28-6 MMA, 20-5 UFC), who meet in the main event. Plus, women’s featherweight and bantamweight champ Amanda Nunes (21-4 MMA, 14-1 UFC) puts her 135-pound title up against Julianna Pena (10-4 MMA, 6-2 UFC).

One fight was canceled from the card. Matt Schnell was dealing with a medical issue after making weight, and the promotion pulled his bout from the lineup. Priscila Cachoeira also missed weight for her women’s flyweight fight with Gillian Robertson.
