TL;DR

Patchy Mix missed bantamweight by 6.3 pounds at RIZIN 54 weigh-ins (63.85 kg vs 61 kg), leading to the bout with Shoko Sato being removed from the co-main and triggering a card reshuffle. Kyoma Akimoto and Kleber Koike made weight for the main event, while Alibek Gadzhammatov missed flyweight by 3.85 pounds. Under RIZIN rules, overweight fighters’ wins can be overturned to a no-contest, and Mix’s three-fight winless streak (including UFC losses) continues.
