MIAMI – The official UFC 299 weigh-ins took place Friday at the host hotel, and MMA Junkie was onsite as all 28 fighters (plus one backup) hit the scales ahead of Saturday’s event at Kaseya Center.
Among those who weighed in were UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley (17-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC), who faces Marlon Vera (21-8-1 MMA, 15-7 UFC) in a rematch years in the making.
O’Malley made weight early in the window, with Vera coming a bit later on in the initial one-hour window. Vera needed the box and breathed a sigh of relief as he officially hit 135 pounds.
