Watch Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier weigh-in live ahead of UFC 257

Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier have both made weight ahead of their UFC 257 clash in Abu Dhabi.

The Dublin fighter tipped the scales at 155lbs, while Poirier weighed in at 156lbs for the main event, which takes place in the early hours of Sunday morning Irish time.

Fighters are allowed to weigh in one pound over the division limit for non-title fights, so fight fans can now look forward to this keenly anticipated scrap.

The ceremonial weigh-ins take place later this afternoon and there will be a small crowd in attendance to cheer the fighters on.

The ceremony gets underway at 3pm and you can watch it all live at the top of this page.

“That’s 1-5-5. Championship weight,” McGregor roared as he weighed in earlier.

His coach John Kavanagh tweeted: "2 elite fighters on weight and healthy in their prime ready to go. We're gonna witness something special. The painting is complete, the unveiling will be nothing short of spectacular. Combat sports at its absolute best. Lets go!!"
