Almost everything is ready for the awaited UFC 275, which takes place this Saturday (11), in Singapore. Before the show, the 24 athletes scheduled for the event must pass the scale appointment. This Friday (10), starting at 9:50 am (Brasília time), the fighters will perform the official weigh-in. The highlights are Glover Teixeira e Taila Santos, who compete for belts on the card.
Light heavyweight champion (up to 93kg.) since October 2021, Glover is looking for his first title defense. To stay on top, the fighter will need to beat the dangerous Jiri Prochazka who, for the first time, fights for a belt in Ultimate.

With the tough commitment of measuring strength against the 'queen' of flyweights (up to 56,7kg.), Valentina Shevchenko, Taila Santos will need to prove the possible weaknesses of the Kyrgyzstani. At the UFC 275, the Brazilian can make history and dethrone one of the best MMA representatives of all time.
In addition to Teixeira and Santos, Brazil will have one more representative. Rogerio Bontorin faces Manel kape in a clash contested in the under-56,7kg division.
Still on the main card, a historic rematch. In a clash between former champions, Weili Zhang e Joanna Jedrzejczyk they try to repeat the epic battle promoted by both in 2020. The athletes once again measure their strength with an eye on a new opportunity to fight for the strawweight title (under 52,1kg).
