“The Karate Hottie” finds herself in a familiar place headlining a UFC card, albeit on a two-fight losing streak having lost decisions to Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Carla Esparza. Prior to her recent disappointments, “The Karate Hottie” had racked up three wins in the division with the biggest a decision win over Karolina Kowalkiewicz. Always a professional, Waterson came in at 115 pounds on the dot.
Even though Hill (12-8) is coming off a split decision loss to Claudia Gadelha, she finds herself in the main event slot. Prior to that setback, “Overkill” was on an impressive three-fight winning streak having stopped Hannah Cifers and Ariane Carnelossi and getting a nod from the judges over Konklak Suphisara. Hill will look to get back into contention with a win and looked prepared on the scales by weighing 115.5 pounds.
Although every fighter that hit the scales for this now 12-fight card made their proper marks, one bout was scratched due to weight issues. The flyweight match between Matt Schnell and Tyson Nam was removed due to “weight management issues” for Schnell. Also of note, Kevin Croom (154.5) will be stepping in to face Roosevelt Roberts (155.5) at lightweight on extremely short notice after Matt Frevola pulled out due to an injury. Finally, Jalin Turner (163.5) and Brok Weaver (164) hit their 165-pound catchweight limit with relative ease, and “The Tarantula” did so while carrying one of his tarantulas to the scale.
UFC Fight Night 177 will air in its entirety on ESPN+. The prelims kick off at 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT, while the main card starts at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
