LIVE! UFC 280 Early Weigh Ins Results!

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) returns to the pay-per-view (PPV) market this Sat. (Oct. 22, 2022) for the “Oliveira vs. Makhachev” mixed martial arts (MMA) fight card, held inside Etihad Arena on “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi, UAE. UFC 280 will be headlined by the lightweight title fight between former champion Charles Oliveira and streaking 155-pound contender Islam Makhachev, who compete for the vacant strap “Do Bronx” left on the scale last May in Phoenix. In the UFC 280 co-headliner, bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling will put his 135-pound strap on the line against former division titleholder TJ Dillashaw. The winner of that five-round affair could be paired off with the winner of Petr Yan vs. Sean O’Malley, who lock horns on the UFC 280 PPV main card.

But before they can fight, they must first weigh in!

The UFC 280 early (and official) weigh ins will stream LIVE from the promotion’s host hotel in the embedded video above starting promptly at 1 a.m. ET, which is late Thursday night at 10 p.m. PT for you folks operating on Pacific Time. The festivities are expected to last roughly two hours but could end much earlier depending on how quickly all 26 fighters get to the scale. Remember, the promotion will also stage the UFC 280 ceremonial weigh ins — complete with fighter staredowns — live from Etihad Arena at 8 a.m. ET on Friday morning.
