Dan Ige is apparently exploring the possibility of dropping to the bantamweight division. The featherweight contender has struggled recently with a 2-4 record in his last six fights. His most recent bout ended in a first-round knockout loss to Melquizael Costa. The poor run of form appears to be motivating consideration of a weight class change. A move to 135 pounds would represent a significant cut for Ige, who has competed at featherweight throughout his UFC career. No official announcement has been made regarding the potential weight change.
