McCann is set to make her comeback in the octagon after losing to Erin Blanchfield at UFC 281. Despite the loss, she had previously won three fights in a row, including a Fight of the Night with Ji Yeon Kim, and back-to-back spinning back elbow knockouts over Luana Carolina and Hannah Goldy, which earned her Performance of the Night bonuses. McCann will aim to excite her home crowd once again with an impressive performance. Her opponent, Stoliarenko, has had a tough time in the UFC, losing four of her five fights since joining in 2020. She hopes to keep her place in the UFC by defeating the popular McCann.

McCann’s UFC colleague Casey Oneill was questioning how Stoliarenko will possibly be able to make flyweight, tweeting “How the hell is stoliarenko making flyweight when she almost died on the scale for bantam ?? 🫠” It seems unlikely that Stoliarenko will be able to cut the significant amount of weight required to compete at flyweight without consequences to her health and performance.

While the fight may be intriguing on paper, there are valid concerns about Stoliarenko’s ability to safely make the weight cut for this flyweight bout. Unless she has a weight cutting strategy in place, this matchup could be putting her wellbeing at risk. The UFC should consider these weight cutting concerns before hastily booking such a fight.

Overall, the announcement of McCann vs. Stoliarenko has led to questions about whether this fight actually serves the best interests of the athletes given Stoliarenko’s track record of dangerous weight cuts. The UFC needs to carefully consider the health impacts on the fighters before finalizing fights. Safety must come before entertainment value.
