UFC on ESPN 1 ceremonial weigh-ins video: Ngannou vs. Velasquez

PHOENIX – The UFC on ESPN 1 ceremonial weigh-ins are in the books, and MMAjunkie was on the scene for the festivities.

Earlier Saturday, the official weigh-ins took place, with three fighters missing the mark. The good news, however, is that none of the fights were cancelled.

In the main event, former UFC champion Cain Velasquez returns from a two-and-a-half year layoff to take on Francis Ngannou. And in the co-headliner, Paul Felder and James Vick square off looking to establish themselves as viable players in a stacked lightweight division.

You can watch all 13 face-offs from the ceremonial weigh-ins in the video above. Or check out a gallery of all 26 fighters during their time on the stage.

UFC on ESPN 1 takes place Sunday at Talking Stick Resort Arena and airs on ESPN following prelims on ESPN+.
