Liz Carmouche shaved her head to successfully make weight for her world title fight in Chicago on Friday.
The MMA veteran, who has previously fought in the UFC and Bellator, faces Jena Bishop in the main event for the PFL flyweight world title.
Bishop came in just under the 125lb limit, but 42-year-old Carmouche needed a hasty haircut before she stepped on the scales.
The American’s team used electric clippers to shave her head and ensure she made weight.
Despite the last-minute rush, Carmouche was all smiles as she weighed in, rubbing her hair to show off her new haircut – including some bare spots.
Speaking earlier in the week, Carmouche admitted flyweight was a “crazy cut” for her.
“My bone density keeps increasing, therefore my weight keeps increasing and I can keep reducing calories but that’s not going to change the build of my body,” she told Ariel Helwani on Uncrowned.
“So 135lb makes the most sense, but the performance I have at 125lb makes it really hard to want to go up a weight class.”
