O UFC London takes place this Saturday (18), starting at 14:30 pm, but this Friday, during the event's ceremonial weigh-in, the weather has already heated up. Although the members of the main fight, Jimi Manuwa and Corey anderson, they had a calm face, in other fights, there were serious and even playful fights.

Brazilian Francimar Bodão faces Darren stewart in the preliminary portion of the show and was framed by the Englishman, who pulled him back. Angry, Bodão pushed his opponent and a fight almost broke out on the weigh-in stage. Bodão and Stewart faced each other last year and the fight was unsuccessful due to the Englishman headbutting the Brazilian.

From another perspective, the featherweights arnold allen e mawan amirkhani tricked UFC matchmaker Sean Shelby. In charge of holding the fighters back in case of a fight, Shelby was taken by surprise when Allen and Amirkhani attacked each other. However, the Englishman and the Finnish man had agreed to play a prank on the leader and they soon laughed.

O UFC Fight Night London will be held this Saturday (18) and will start at 14:30 pm (Brasília time) with coverage of the SUPER FIGHTS, with narration of the fights in real time, combat reports and post-event interviews.
