In a bizarre circumstance, a fight has been scrapped from UFC 301 – after a fighter successfully made weight. William Gomis (13-2 MMA, 3-0 UFC) struggled to make the walk to the scale Friday in Rio de Janeiro for his featherweight fight on the prelims against Jean Silva (12-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC). Wearing a T-shirt and shorts, he got on the scale and was 143 pounds – a full 3 pounds under the non-title featherweight limit. He needed to be helped off the scale and behind the stage, though, and it was reported that he vomited just prior to coming to the scale.
