UFC Vegas 107 is a fight in the midst of a chaotic day at weightings prior to what would be a relatively harmless fighting evening.
The APEX show is led by a resentment battle between Maycee Barber and in Blanchfield with implications of the flight weight. The first has spent the structure on roasting her rival, but it was Blanchfield who got the last smile, and 20 percent of her rival wallet, because Barber missed the weight with half a pound.
That weight Miss was lucky not to cost the card another important fight, because the expected debut of Andreas Gustafsson was also officially canceled due to an injury. There was also drama on the scales in a bizarre day at the UFC Apex.
Maycee Baber misses the weight in the bizarre last day of UFC Vegas 107 Fight Week
Maycee Barber spent the entire Vechtweek for UFC Vegas 107 waste in her rival Blanchfield and promised a brutal show on Saturday. Unfortunately it seems that she has flown the last obstacle while we weighed at 126.5 pounds, only half a pound above the extensive flying weight limit.
Blanchfield touched the scales at the championship weight of 125 pounds. The couple has since agreed to continue with a catch fight in which the number-four competitor will earn 20 percent of her rival wallet as a fine.
It was not the only fly weight fight to result in a weightmiss, in which Allan Nascimento came in at 127.5LB for his fight with Jafel Filho.
There was also a late division change for Ketlen Vieira vs Macy Chiasson, in which the first came to 146 pounds for the New Fedweight competition and forfeited 25 percent of its income. They had to compete on bantam weight.
Andreas Gustafsson's UFC debut canceled after late replacement has been forced
The big disaster for the map seems to have come just before hunters hit the scales. The Swedish rising star Andreas Gustafsson would finally fight in the Octagon after a stunning victory in the Contender Series by Dana White earned him a shot.

Gustafsson would face Jeremiah Wells opposite Welterweight before his rival pulled himself out of the late notification from the fight. Trevin Giles stepped up, although he needed a catch weight to make the fight feasible and he was still unable to make the scales after an injury.
It is assumed that GustaFsson was asked by the UFC to stay in the United States in the hope that matchmakers can book him for their UFC 316 pay-per-view event in Newark next weekend.
