TORONTO -- Anthony Pettis missed weight Friday for his interim featherweight championship fight against Max Holloway.
Pettis (19-5) was 148 pounds at the official weigh-in, exceeding the allowed weight of 145. Holloway (16-3) came in right at 145 pounds.
The fight will still headline UFC 206 on Saturday at Air Canada Centre, but Dana White told ESPN that it is now an interim title fight for Holloway only. If Pettis wins, he won't be an interim champion.
Also, Pettis will forfeit 20 percent of his purse, which is standard.
The UFC created the interim title fight last month, when the UFC 206 pay-per-view lost its original main event between light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson. Cormier withdrew from the bout due to injury.
In addition to turning the Pettis-Holloway fight into an interim title bout, the UFC stripped former champion Conor McGregor (21-3) of the official featherweight title and promoted then-interim champion Jose Aldo to the division's official titleholder.

Close round. Both guys landed some good stuff and could argue either 1 won it. I will say Holloway but it's close
