The would-be women’s flyweight contender came in at 127.2 pounds for her fight with Roxanne Modafferi at UFC 230, which takes place Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York. That put Eubanks 1.2 pounds over the flyweight limit (including the one-pound allowance).
Eubanks famously struggled to beat the scale for her UFC debut last December, when she was supposed to fight Nicco Montano for the right to become the promotion’s inaugural women’s champion at 125 pounds. The two earned their spot after battling their way through a 16-woman tournament on season 26 of The Ultimate Fighter.
