This Saturday\u2019s UFC 326 card unfortunately took a late hit when one fighter wasn\u2019t able to make it to the scale on weigh-in day. <\/p>\n

Scheduled to take place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV, UFC 326 is headlined by a highly-anticipated rematch between fan favorites Charles Oliveira and Max Holloway, who will attempt to defend his \u201cBMF\u201d title for the second time<\/a> after defeating Dustin Poirier in their trilogy fight last year. <\/p>\n

The main card features several other fights with serious implications for the UFC\u2019s middleweight and bantamweight divisions, but unfortunately UFC 326 did lose a scheduled prelim matchup<\/a> when it was announced during the official UFC 326 Morning Weigh-In Show that Jeong Yeong Lee would not be weighing-in for his featherweight bout with Gaston Bola\u00f1os.<\/p>\n

Gaston Bola\u00f1os Misses Out On UFC 326 Fight After Making Weight<\/p>\n

Bola\u00f1os had already successfully hit the scale at 145.5 lbs. before news broke that Lee wouldn\u2019t be weighing-in, costing the 33-year-old a chance to bring his UFC record back over .500 on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Dreamkiller\u201d made his professional MMA debut with Bellator in 2017 and won via first-round finish before he was submitted in his sophomore outing against Brandon Laroco. Bola\u00f1os closed out the year with another knockout that kicked off a four-fight win streak, although that was followed by back-to-back losses before he defeated Daniel Carey with a buzzer-beater finish in his final Bellator outing. <\/p>\n

The 33-year-old won his UFC debut against Aaron Phillips via unanimous decision but has alternated wins and losses across four UFC outings, also taking a decision over Cortavious Romious in between stoppage-losses to Marcus McGhee and Quang Le. <\/p>\n

A veteran of Road to UFC, Lee was also coming into UFC 326 hoping to bring his promotional record into positive territory following back-to-back losses. <\/p>\n

After dropping a decision in his fourth professional bout, Lee won four-straight fights to earn a spot on Road to UFC in 2022. A 36-second submission and 42-second knockout were enough to earn Lee a formal invitation to the UFC, where he defeated Yizha and Blake Bilder in his first two outings before coming up short against Hyder Amil and Daniel Santos in his most recent fights. <\/p>\n

All other fighters scheduled to compete at UFC 326 successfully made weight ahead of the event<\/a>, and the card is set to go ahead tomorrow with a total of 12 fights. <\/p>\n
