"Although I made weight and it was most definitely a harder cut than I expected! My opponent missed weight by 8lbs officially, and although we agreed to take the fight, the commission used by the UFC are not happy, have pulled the fight from the card!!"
"All my hard work wasted and the opportunity to fight on my home turf stolen from me! To perform on the very best platform taken in moments!!"
"Luana Carolina is now in limbo. She missed weight in March 2025, forcing a fight with Montana de la Rosa to be cancelled, and on two other occasions in her UFC tenure came in heavy."
Luana Carolina failed to make weight for her bantamweight fight against Melissa Mullins, coming in at 144lbs, which is acceptable for featherweight but not bantamweight. Despite Mullins agreeing to proceed with the fight, commission officials canceled it. Mullins expressed her frustration on social media, stating that her hard work was wasted and her opportunity to fight at home was taken away. Carolina, who has a record of 3-1 in her last four bouts, has a history of weight issues, including a previous cancellation in March 2025.
