LONDON – The heavyweight headliner for UFC Fight Night 208 is official after Curtis Blaydes and Tom Aspinall made weight on Friday.
Ahead of Saturday’s main event at The O2, Blaydes (16-3 MMA, 11-3 UFC) and Aspinall (12-2 MMA, 5-0 UFC) stepped on the scale without issue at official weigh-ins.
Blaydes registered at 260 pounds, while Aspinall tipped the scale at 251 pounds.
Check out the video of them stepping on the scale above.
Both men will look to enter title contention with a win. Blaydes is coming off a second-round TKO of Chris Daukaus in March, earning his first performance bonus in the UFC. Unbeaten in the octagon, Aspinall entered the upper echelon of the division when he submitted Alexander Volkov in the first round at UFC Fight Night 204.
