Shayna Baszler has an MMA background and hinted at something wrong after UFC fighter Julija Stoliarenko fainted at her weigh in

One huge talking point that came out from the latest UFC event was fighter Julija Stoliarenko fainting during her weigh in.

The former Invicta champion couldn’t stand up during the weigh in and fainted a couple of times. She was able to weigh and then needed some help from the paramedics to leave before her fight was cancelled.

Many fans were alarmed at this situation and hit out at not only the UFC but the entire process of weight cutting.

This is a dangerous act done by all of the UFC stars and some permanent damage could take place too.

Fortunately, Stoliarenko was fine after this incident and she posted a few updates too.

Stoliarenko: "As everybody knows when you cut weight, you cannot be on this weight for too long, because you're already on the limits of your dehydration and so on. That was an issue why it all happened.”

She added that she feels great now and would have been fine to compete.

Shayna Baszler has bigger concerns for Fastlane

Baszler is one half of the Women’s Tag champions alongside Nia Jax. However, the pair have had their squabbles in the past.

Baszler and Jax do have dreams of becoming a singles champion on the main roster. However, they need to be on the same page at Fastlane or they could lose these titles too.
