WATCH: Alex Oliveira missed weight by A LOT ahead of UFC Portland

No fewer than three fighters missed weight ahead of UFC Fight Night 96 in Portland.

Main eventer John Lineker weighed in at 136.5lb ahead of his bantamweight meeting with John Dodson, while fellow Brazilian Hacran Dias tipped the scales at 148.5lb just a day before his proposed featherweight bout with Andre Fili. But co-main eventer Alex Oliveira, who was due to take on Will Brooks at lightweight, weighed in at a huge 161.5lb for the 155lb fight. https://twitter.com/MMAFighting/status/781912242946052096 Brooks has accepted a catchweight bout with Oliveira, who has fought at lightweight in the past but took his last two fights at 170lb. Oliveira will face a fine, while the fight will not go ahead if he weighs more than 175lb at the time of the bout. "I just saw Alex Oliveira missed weight by five and a half pounds. Come on, man. That’s unprofessional," former Bellator lightweight boss Brooks is quoted as saying by MMAJunkie.

"I take this serious, bro. I’m not in the business of not doing my job. "My wife and my daughter can’t afford for me to miss weight, for the commission to take 20 percent of my paycheck. This is a profession. This is your job.”

Lineker v Dodson and Dias v Fili will also now go ahead as catchweight fights, with Lineker and Dias each surrendering 20% of their purse to their opponent, as per UFC rules. The prelims in Portland will begin around 12:15am UK time, with the main card due to get underway at 4am. Who will win, Mayo or Dublin?
