Brunno Ferreira Guarantees Weight Fix
Brunno Ferreira opened up about his recent weight miss, calling it a significant personal disappointment that "bothered me a lot." He publicly guaranteed the issue is "solved" ahead of UFC 326, emphasizing his commitment to professionalism moving forward.
The weight miss occurred at the UFC 323 weigh-ins on December 5, 2025, where Brunno Ferreira came in at 189 pounds, 3 pounds over the middleweight limit for his fight against Marvin Vettori. As a consequence, Ferreira was fined 20% of his fight purse, which went to his opponent. Despite the unprofessional error, the fight proceeded as scheduled on December 6, 2025. Ferreira went on to defeat the former title challenger Vettori by unanimous decision after three rounds. This victory marked a significant win in Ferreira's career, though it was overshadowed by the pre-fight weight issue. Now, all eyes are on Ferreira's next appearance at UFC 326, where he is scheduled for a high-stakes rematch against fellow Brazilian Gregory Rodrigues. This fight is a critical test for Ferreira to prove his renewed professionalism and build on his recent momentum. Their first encounter was at UFC 283 in January 2023, which was Ferreira's UFC debut. Ferreira, known as "The Hulk," scored a stunning first-round knockout victory over Rodrigues in that bout. The rematch at UFC 326 gives Rodrigues a chance for redemption, while Ferreira aims to prove his first win was no fluke.
