WICHITA, Kan. – MMAjunkie was on scene and reporting live from today’s early and official UFC on ESPN+ 4 fighter weigh-ins, where all 26 fighters made weight without issue.
The early weigh-ins took place at the UFC host hotel in Wichita, Kan. Unlike most UFC events, there are no ceremonial weigh-ins today for the fans ahead of Saturday’s card, which takes place at INTRUST Bank Arena in Wichita. The event streams on ESPN+.
Among those weighing in were former heavyweight champion Junior Dos Santos (20-5 MMA, 14-4 UFC) and recent title challenger Derrick Lewis (21-7 MMA, 12-5 UFC), who meet in the main event. Lewis was 19 pounds heavier than his opponent on the scales, weighing in at 265.5 pounds compared to Dos Santos’ 246.5.
Only one fighter needed to disrobe to make weight, with Sergio Moraes (14-3-1 MMA, 8-2-1 UFC) needing the towel to make the 171-pound limit for his fight with Anthony Rocco Martin (15-4 MMA, 7-4 UFC).
