UFC Edmonton Official Weigh-In Procedures Set

All 26 fighters scheduled for this Saturday’s UFC event in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, are set to hit the scales on Friday morning for the official weigh-ins. The proceedings will determine the readiness of the entire fight card as athletes look to hit their contracted weight limits.

Headlining the event is a high-stakes welterweight clash between Joaquin Buckley and Mike Malott. As this is a non-title contest, both fighters are permitted a one-pound allowance, meaning neither can exceed 171 pounds during the official session. The weigh-ins will be conducted under the oversight of the local athletic commission to ensure compliance with UFC regulations before the fighters step into the Octagon at the arena.

Fans and analysts will be watching closely to see if any fighters encounter difficulties reaching their marks, as weight misses can often jeopardize bouts or alter the landscape of the card. Following the conclusion of the weigh-ins, the fighters will move on to the ceremonial festivities later in the day, providing the final face-offs before Saturday’s broadcast begins.
