UFC on ESPN+ 25 weigh-in faceoff highlights: Anderson, Blachowicz set for New Mexico rematch

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The weigh-ins are in the books for the UFC’s return to New Mexico.

UFC on ESPN+ 25 takes place Saturday at Santa Ana Star Center in Rio Rancho, N.M., near Albuquerque. The event streams on ESPN+.

In the main event, Corey Anderson (13-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC) meets Jan Blachowicz (25-8 MMA, 8-5 UFC) in a light heavyweight rematch that could determine the next title challenger for champion Jon Jones – who lives and trains in Albuquerque. In the co-feature, Michel Pereira (23-10 MMA, 1-1 UFC) takes on Albuquerque native Diego Sanchez (29-12 MMA, 18-12 UFC) at welterweight.

Friday, the fighters made weight at the official weigh-ins in the morning, then got face to face quickly afterward at the UFC’s host hotel in Albuquerque. Check out the highlights in the video above, and don’t miss our exclusive photo gallery below.
