Luciana Andrade and Red Dela Cruz will host UFC 302, which features Dustin Poirier and Islam Makhachev as the main event.
After emerging as the inaugural winner of the UFC Octagon Girl Search in Asia, Red Dela Cruz signed with the UFC in 2015. She leads the lifestyle of a typical 9–5 worker and a model. Cruz does not cover UFC events but works for a Sydney-based data company.
Meanwhile, Brazilian ring girl Luciana Andrade was previously a model and a lawyer. Hard-core MMA fans who watch her on UFC PPVs held in the US are familiar with her name. She has a sizable fan base and is one of the six-ring ladies in the US.
Ceremonial Weight-Ins Of UFC 302 Dustin Poirier vs Islam Makhachev
Dustin Poirier and Islam Makhachev, two of the most successful fighters in mixed martial arts history, were weighed before this Saturday’s main event at UFC 302.
In the main event at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN2, ESPN+, Makhachev (25-1 MMA, 14-1 UFC) will defend his lightweight championship for the third time against former interim champion Poirier (30-8 MMA, 22-7 UFC). However, before that could happen, both men had to handle business on the scale.
At Friday’s official UFC 302 weigh-ins at the UFC host hotel, champion Makhachev registered at 155 pounds on the nose. Challenger Poirier, who weighed 155 pounds before his third and maybe last attempt at an undisputed UFC title, is similarly defensible.
