MMA Fighting • • sports
Key Points:
- Patchy Mix missed weight by nearly 6.3 pounds for his bantamweight bout at RIZIN 54, leading to his removal from the co-main event against Shoko Sato in Tokyo.
- Kyoma Akimoto and former champion Kleber Koike successfully made weight for the featherweight main event at RIZIN 54.
- Mix, who lost his RIZIN debut at featherweight, weighed in at 140.7 pounds, exceeding the 135-pound bantamweight limit.
- Due to RIZIN rules, Mix cannot secure a win if he competes overweight, resulting in any potential victory being overturned to a no-contest and extending his current three-fight winless streak.
- Alibek Gadzhammatov also missed weight by 3.85 pounds for his flyweight fight against Yuki Ito, subjecting him to the same no-contest rule.
