The card’s co-main event is also a lightweight bout, with the division’s sixth-ranked fighter Dan Hooker welcoming former three-time Bellator lightweight champion Michael Chandler to the UFC. RECAP: McGregor vs Poirier press conference Frevola successfully weighed in as a back-up fighter, however, and will be glad he did; he is now paired with Tsarukyan, who will forfeit 20 per cent of his purse for hitting the scales at 157lbs – although the new bout will take place at that weight.
