The biggest event in Ultimate Fighting Championship history is set to take place on Saturday night, with UFC 200 being held at the new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
After a wild series of events leading up to UFC 200 that resulted in Miesha Tate vs. Amanda Nunes being thrust into the headlining spot, the show must go on and there are still plenty of reasons for fans to get excited about the action ahead.
Along with the women’s title fight, UFC 200 features the return of former heavyweight title holder Brock Lesnar, who faces Mark Hunt in the co-main event.
Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar go to war for the interim featherweight title, while light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier remains on the card — despite Jon Jones’ removal — to face MMA legend Anderson Silva in a non-title fight.
Of course, all fighters must first make weight Friday before their bouts can become official.
You can watch today’s weigh-ins live in the video below beginning at 6 p.m. ET.
