There were a couple of issues during the UFC Liverpool weigh-ins, which saw two athletes miss weight, including the headlining fighter in Darren Till.
Till, the hometown favorite that’s being built up as possibly the promotion’s next big star, unfortunately botched his weight cut and came in at 174.5 lbs. The 25-year-old has always been one of the biggest fighters in the division, but even with the one pound allowance for non-title fights, he still came in 3.5 lbs over the welterweight limit.
His opponent, Stephen Thompson, came in exactly at 171 lbs.
