UFC 255 video: Valentina Shevchenko, Jennifer Maia on weight for title fight

LAS VEGAS – The UFC 255 co-main event is set after the title fighters made weight Friday without issue.

In the co-feature, women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko (19-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) is a huge favorite against challenger Jennifer Maia (18-6-1 MMA, 3-2 UFC). Shevchenko weighed in early in the window and was 125 pounds. Maia came to the scale a few minutes later and was 124.5 to finalize their bout.

Check out the video above from their trips to the scale at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The same venue hosts Saturday’s event, which has a main card on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN2/ESPN+.
