There would have been a number of nervous eyes watching as Aisling Daly stepped onto the scale this evening for her UFC 186 weigh-in.
But the Irish strawweight showed that she had no problem in making the 116lb limit for her bout against TUF 20 castmate Randa Markos.
Daly (15-5) is set to take on Canada’s own Markos (4-2) in the opening fight of the Montreal card and it was made official with both ladies coming in on point.
“Ais the Bash” is looking to continue her momentum after a first round armbar earned her a victory in her promotional debut against Alex Chambers last December.
And the SBG product proved that missing weight for that winter bout was an anomaly and that she’d ready for a run at the strawweight title, something that she’ll be well on her way to if she can get past Markos.
