The UFC Auckland weigh-in has come and gone, with one fight ending up scratched from the card after Maki Pitolo failed to hit the scale.
The UFC returns to New Zealand this weekend, with Dan Hooker and Paul Felder getting main event duties. Plenty of local talent graces the UFC Auckland card, including Hooker, Jummy Crute, Ben Sosoli, Brad Riddell, and others who make their home in New Zealand and nearby Australia.
All fighters made weight on Friday save one — Maki Pitolo did not hit the scale, although opponent Takashi Sato did make weight. The fight has been scrapped, with Pitolo reportedly suffering an “illness.”
