The World Series of Fighting’s night of champions fell one title fight short on Friday when UFC veteran Melvin Guillard was well over the limit for what was supposed to have been a lightweight title fight with champion Justin Gaethje . Guillard stepped on the scale at 158.8 pounds, a full 3.8 pounds over the limit for a 155-pound title fight. The current champion needed the assistance of a towel, but made weight at 154.8 pounds. Guillard has now missed weight in three of his last four bouts, including both fights under the World Series of Fighting banner. The card dubbed “A Night of Champions” was supposed to have featured three title fights, but with Guillard missing weight, his bout with Gaethje is now a non-title fight at a 159-pound catchweight.
