It seems fans aren’t the only ones who might not be taking this weekend’s UFC card all that seriously. UFC Vegas 64 takes place this Saturday, November 5th, at the promotion’s Apex facility in Las Vegas, NV. Headlined by a strawweight bout between Marina Rodriguez and Amanda Lemos, the event hasn’t garnered much excitement heading into fight week.
As fight night approaches, however, the card almost made at least one inauspicious entry into the record books, with five athletes missing weight on the scales. That’s more than any previous event in UFC history. At least, it was right up until flyweight fighter Shanna Young took drastic action.
