TL;DR Summary

Cris Cyborg's potential retirement fight against Ketlen Vieira was nearly canceled when Vieira weighed in seven pounds over the 145lb limit for their PFL featherweight title, forcing a catchweight bout with Cyborg's title not on the line; Vieira later revealed kidney and stomach pain prevented further weight cutting and she will forfeit part of her purse, while Cyborg made weight and hinted this could be her last fight.
