UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs. Walker 2 Weigh-ins: Main Event Set, One Fighter Misses Weight
A UFC Fight Night card takes place this Saturday night, and the weigh-ins will be held today.
Ever since their first meeting at UFC 294 ended in a disappointing no contest, Magomed Ankalaev and Johnny Walker have been eager to trade leather. It's a high-stakes battle in the light heavyweight division, and if the winner can achieve his goal in impressive fashion, he'll likely move one step closer to a title opportunity. Ankalaev had a UFC title shot back in late 2022, but UFC CEO Dana White was not happy with the fight, which ended in a draw against Jan Blachowicz.

Official weigh-ins will begin at noon ET. You can watch a live stream of the festivities below (via MMAJunkie).
