Earlier today, at the UFC 224 early morning weigh-ins, Mackenzie Dern missed weight by a staggering 8 pounds.
Her opponent Amanda Cooper has agreed to keep the fight in place, and has agreed to take a large 30% of Dern’s purse to fight her at an increased weight limit.
Brazil’s commission has signed off on the bout, the UFC, Cooper and Dern have all agreed to the new weight class, and the fight is still on.
Now, in a new tweet, Cooper reacts to Dern’s drastic misstep, and roasts her in the process.
