Francisco Prado Reports 190 Pounds Before UFC Vegas 122 Fight

Francisco Prado reported weighing 190 pounds on Saturday, October 10, 2026, ahead of his lightweight bout against Ismael Bonfim at UFC Vegas 122 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Argentine fighter's reported weight came after Bonfim missed the division's limit by 7.5 pounds during Friday's official weigh-in, creating uncertainty around their scheduled matchup.

According to Sports Yahoo, Prado shared his reported fight-day weight on social media after making the lightweight limit at 155 pounds. Bonfim weighed 163.5 pounds against the division's 156-pound limit, exceeding it by 7.5 pounds.

Despite the weight discrepancy, Prado agreed to proceed with the fight and received 25% of Bonfim's purse, according to Sports Yahoo. The bout was scheduled for UFC Vegas 122 at Meta Apex in Las Vegas, with coverage planned for Paramount+.

The available reports did not independently verify Prado's reported 190-pound weight or establish either fighter's official weight on fight night.

Prado entered the matchup with a 12-5 professional record, while Bonfim held a 20-7 record, according to Action Network. Both fighters were seeking to end losing streaks, with Prado having lost four consecutive UFC bouts and Bonfim having suffered three straight defeats.

Prado previously competed at lightweight before moving to welterweight. According to Action Network, he returned to the 155-pound division for this matchup after struggling against larger opponents at 170 pounds.

Statistical comparisons from Action Network showed Bonfim holding higher averages in striking output and accuracy. Prado landed 3.68 significant strikes per minute with 43% striking accuracy and 54% striking defense, while Bonfim averaged 5.10 significant strikes per minute, with 54% accuracy and 62% striking defense.

Bonfim also held an advantage in the reported takedown statistics. Action Network listed his average at 1.22 takedowns per fight with 33% accuracy, compared with Prado's 0.76 takedowns per fight and 19% accuracy.

According to Action Network, Bonfim accepted the matchup on approximately one week's notice. The report also noted that the Brazilian had missed the lightweight limit twice previously, including occasions when he had completed a full training camp.

Prado's reported weight of 190 pounds represented a substantial increase from his official weigh-in figure of 155 pounds. However, without independent confirmation of the fight-night measurement, the precise weight difference between the competitors when they entered the cage remained unverified.
