UFC 251 faceoffs video highlights, photo gallery
ABU DHABI – After the UFC 251 weigh-ins took place Friday, so too did fighter faceoffs, and MMA Junkie was on the scene.
In the main event of the title-fight triple header, Jorge Masvidal (35-13 MMA, 12-6 UFC) steps on six days’ notice to challenge welterweight champion Kamaru Usman (16-1 MMA, 11-0 UFC). In the co-main event, Max Holloway (21-5 MMA, 17-5 UFC) rematches Alexander Volkanovski (21-1 MMA, 8-0 UFC) looking to reclaim the featherweight title. And in the featured bout, a new bantamweight champ will be crowned as Jose Aldo (28-6 MMA, 10-5 UFC) takes on Petr Yan (14-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) for the vacant title.
All six men made weight, as well as fighters from the other two main-card bouts, while two preliminary fighters missed, but no fights were canceled.
Afterward, everyone came face to face for the only time this week. You can watch the faceoffs in the video above, as well as check out our photo gallery below.
