Deiveson Figueiredo doesn’t expect any surprises when he walks to the scale Friday morning for the official UFC 255 weigh-ins in Las Vegas.
“Deus da Guerra” struggled and failed to hit 125-pound championship weight for his February clash with Joseph Benavidez, but he avoided controversy ahead of a rematch with Benavidez in July and then against Alex Perez in November.
Booked for a historic three-week turnaround at UFC 256 on Dec. 12, Figueiredo reassures fans there will be no issue this time.
The Brazilian talent usually bulks up to 147 pounds days after a flyweight bout.
