Controversy arose at the weigh-in as Cormier, who had initially weighed in 1.2 pounds over the 205-pound limit, minutes later weighed in at exactly 205 pounds. Video appeared to show Cormier supporting himself on a towel held by a teammate, though New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) officials denied such allegations.[5]
Promotional newcomer Pearl Gonzalez was expected to face Cynthia Calvillo at the event. She was ruled out of the contest after NYSAC officials confirmed that she could not fight in the state because of her breast implants, which are banned among combat-sports competitors.[6] Later the decision was reversed and the fight was allowed to go on as scheduled.[7]
