Silva Makes Weight For UFC 332 Title Fight

Natalia Silva weighed 125 pounds Friday for her vacant flyweight title fight against Cong Wang at UFC 332, with only one fighter on the card missing weight.

Silva takes on Wang for the vacant championship after original opponent Valentina Shevchenko withdrew with an injury, Sherdog reports. The Brazilian challenger hit the exact limit for the five-round main event, while Wang came in at 124.5 pounds. The bout will air live on Paramount Plus and CBS starting at 8 p.m. ET Saturday.

Ribovics Half Pound Over Lightweight Limit

Esteban Ribovics was the lone fighter to miss his mark, weighing 156.5 pounds for his lightweight bout against King Green. Ribovics will forfeit a percentage of his purse for coming in half a pound over the 156-pound non-title limit.

Silva enters on a 14-fight win streak with five straight UFC wins, most recently beating Rose Namajunas, Alexa Grasso and Jessica Andrade. Wang carries a four-fight winning streak into the championship opportunity, having last lost to Gabriella Fernandes by rear-naked choke.

The co-main event features former flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo against Payton Talbott at bantamweight, with both fighters making weight Friday. Preliminary fights begin at 4 p.m. ET on Paramount Plus ahead of the main card.
