ABU DHABI – Petr Yan and Sean O'Malley had the final staredown for their highly anticipated UFC 280 showdown at Friday’s ceremonial weigh-ins.
Yan (16-3 MMA, 8-2 UFC) and O’Malley (15-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) meet in perhaps the most anticipated non-title fight on the card. The former champion and surging contender meet in a key bantamweight contest.
First, though, they locked eyes one more time at ceremonial weigh-ins. Watch the video above.
UFC 280 takes place Saturday at Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPNews and ESPN+.
