UFC 312 Cancels Preliminary Bout Ahead of Weigh-Ins, All Fighters Make Weight

UFC 312, taking place at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, is set for an exciting night with all fighters successfully making weight, including main event participants Dricus du Plessis and Sean Strickland, both weighing in at 185 pounds for the middleweight title fight. The co-main event features Zhang Weili defending her strawweight title against Tatiana Suarez, who weighed in at 114.5 pounds against Weili's 115 pounds. However, the event faced a setback as a preliminary flyweight bout between Hyun Sung Park and Nyamjargal Tumendemberel was canceled due to weight management issues affecting Tumendemberel. This cancellation adds to a series of fights that were scrapped prior to weigh-ins, including bouts involving Rei Tsuruya and Jimmy Crute. Despite these hiccups, the excitement for the main card remains high, with local talent and promotional debuts adding to the lineup. UFC 312 promises to deliver thrilling matchups as fans anticipate the action on February 8, 2025.
