What counts. The margin is the published official weight minus the contracted limit for that bout, both off the promotion’s own weigh-in page. A miss the source recorded WITHOUT a figure — a bout pulled for weight with no official weight ever posted — is not on this page, because there is no margin to rank; it is on the page that counts misses, which needs no figure to count one. Where a catchweight was agreed after the miss, or the bout was cancelled, the row says so. Weigh-in results cover the 31 UFC cards held in 2026 so far — 24 January 2026 to 12 September 2026. Earlier years are not on file yet, so a fighter with no row here is not a fighter who never missed weight. 6 weigh-in rows in the source are spelt in a way our fighter register has never seen, and they are listed by name in the build rather than attached to a near-match. Ties. 3 of the rows below share the same 2.5 lb over the limit. Two readings the same distance over the limit are listed by date, earliest first. Check us. Every reading here is the promotion’s own published weigh-in result for that card, joined to the fight on our tape by date and name. Each fighter’s page carries the same rows with the source link on each one, so a figure can be checked against the page it was published on. Nothing here is a re-weigh, an estimate or a report.
