Will fight despite big weight miss
Chairez's fight with Daniel Lacerda at UFC Mexico City will proceed after he weighed in at 131, five pounds over the flyweight limit, Danny Segura of MMAJunkie reports.
ANALYSIS
Chairez comes into this bout as an overwhelming favorite after the first meeting between these two ended in a no-contest due to the referee incorrectly believing that "Puro Chicali" made his opponent pass out from a choke. With all the momentum on his side, this is a baffling development, as this fight was first announced in November. It should be noted that Lacerda weighed in at 127 pounds, so both competitors will come in heavy. While this is only his second fight in the organization, it is likely that Chairez is on the hot seat after such a blunder. Both fighters will be fined as a result of their misses, but exact penalties are not yet known.
