Drops decision after weight miss
Moura lost to Denise Gomes via split decision (27-30, 29-28, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Louisville, Kentucky.
ANALYSIS
It's been a disastrous past 36 hours for Moura. She missed weight by half a pound Friday morning and had to forfeit 20 percent of her purse for Gomes in order for the fight to proceed. When the bell finally rang, Moura was nearly choked out immediately before quickly gassing. Outside of a few token takedowns that did no real damage, Moura generated zero offense of her own. The 30-year-old Brazilian has now missed weight for each of her two UFC bouts. It's nearly impossible to believe the company will schedule her for a strawweight fight for her next time out.

Dominates after weight miss
Moura defeated Montserrat Ruiz via TKO (punches) at 2:14 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
ANALYSIS
It was about as dominant a performance as you will ever see in a fight which lasted seven-plus minutes. Moura closed with a 102-9 edge in total strikes landed. That is not a misprint. That's the good news for Moura. The bad news is that much of the good work she did inside the octagon was negated by the fact she missed weight by 3.5 pounds on Friday morning. She had to forfeit 30 percent of her purse to Ruiz in order for the fight to proceed. Moura is obviously worth keep an eye on moving forward, but it's imperative she get her weight cutting issues under control before her next bout.

Fight on after missing weight
Moura missed the strawweight limit and will face Montserrat Ruiz at a catchweight at UFC Sao Paulo on Saturday, Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Moura apparently had her period come this week and affect her weight cut, and she'll lose 30 percent of her purse for Saturday as a result. The 29-year-old is making her UFC debut, while Ruiz is looking to end a two-fight losing streak.
