BAD MMA News — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 20:07:03 +0000

Pedro Falcao will make his UFC debut on three days’ notice Saturday in Las Vegas. After Heili Alateng fell ill days before UFC Fight Night 240 at the UFC Apex, Falcao (16-3 MMA, 0-0 UFC) was signed to fight fellow Brazilian Victor Hugo (24-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC), the promotion announced Wednesday. MMA Mania was first to report the new booking. Falcao, 31, is a member of Xtreme Couture, and he competed on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2021 when he finished James Barnes with ground-and-pound. Despite the win and finish, Falcao was not signed

Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 240 is down a man. With Heili Alateng out due to illness, the promotion is seeking a replacement bantamweight to fight Victor Hugo on four days’ notice at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Two people with knowledge of the withdrawal informed MMA Junkie of it Tuesday but asked to remain anonymous as the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. Alateng (16-9-2 MMA, 4-2-1 UFC) most recently competed in October when he lost a unanimous decision to Chris Gutierrez. The defeat snapped a two-fight winning streak that included victories over Kevin Croom and Chad Anheliger

UFC Sao Paulo: Ismael Bonfim vs. Vinc Pichel, Victor Hugo vs. Daniel Marcos scrapped after weight misses

BAD MMA News — Fri, 03 Nov 2023 16:21:34 +0000

The UFC’s return to Sao Paulo for the first time in nearly four years will go on with a couple fewer Brazilians than planned. Two UFC Fight Night 231 bouts were canceled Friday following the event’s official weigh-ins, where four fighters missed their marks on their first attempts. Ultimately, three missed weight – which led to a pair of cancellations. Ismael Bonfim (19-4 MMA, 1-1 UFC) was set to open the main card against Vinc Pichel (14-3 MMA, 7-3 UFC) at lightweight. Bonfim came in at 159.5 pounds and didn’t attempt to cut additional weight. Pichel missed on his first attempt, too, at 157 – but used his extra hour to get official at 155.5
