Randy Brown thinks he’ll be at a disadvantage stepping into UFC 310.
This Saturday, Brown (19-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) takes on Bryan Battle (12-2 MMA, 6-1 UFC) in what was supposed to be a welterweight bout in the preliminary card of the final UFC pay-per-view of 2024 (ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN2, Hulu, ESPN+). Although the fight still stands, the fight is now at a catchweight, as Battle missed weight by four pounds, coming in at 175 pounds Friday morning.
Brown is not happy about his opponent’s weight miss, and he made sure to let the world know.
“19 walks to the UFC octagon alone. 6 on the regional scene and I’ve never missed weight not 1 time,” Brown wrote on Instagram. “Like a true professional.
“Brian knew he wasn’t gonna make the weight from the day before but still let me suffer through a weight cut. These guys bite the bullet on percentage then come in overweight on purpose so they can get a weight advantage on fight night. I’ll be no more than 185 tmrw. I would bet he’ll be well over 200 tmrw. How is that fair to me?”
