UFC bantamweight Cameron Smotherman collapsed moments after making weight Friday.
Smotherman (12-6) had been scheduled to face Ricky Turcios at UFC 324 on Saturday inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas but the fight was canceled after his collapse. Smotherman successfully weighed in at 135.5 pounds Friday morning but then fell to the floor after taking several steps away from the scale. He was eventually carried off the platform at T-Mobile Arena and tended to by physicians. Turcios also made weight.
Weight cutting is a standard practice in the UFC and MMA in general. It is common for athletes to cut more than 10% of body weight in the days leading up to a weigh-in before rehydrating ahead of the competition.
The UFC has not announced any update on Smotherman. He is 1-2 in three appearances in the UFC.

My guess he was on a 48+ hour fast.
hell no
plus her long time BF is a huge ass former MMA guy. my dogs love their dogs, but my dogs keep their distance from Pat.
he's got some weird energy and darkness
I'm excited for UFC again now that they've done away with the Pay Per View model and gone to streaming only for all their fights. The cards are just going to be bigger and better this year hopefully as they try to keep growing their sport. They should've made this decision a long time ago because some of their cards were uninspired and didn't make me want to watch as someone who isn't a hardcore UFC fan.
