For the third time in as many weeks, a live event will emanate from the UFC Apex. The official weigh-ins for Saturday night’s UFC Vegas 3 card are in the books. Both main event combatants have made weight and all that’s left are the fights themselves.
UFC Vegas 3: Blaydes vs. Volkov Weigh-In Results
Of particular note, it was announced live during the weigh-ins that the Jim Miller/Roosevelt Roberts will be at a catch weight of 160 pounds.
The lone fighter to miss weight is Frank Camacho, who exceeded the mark by two pounds. Also, lightweight Justin Jaynes hit the scale as a replacement for Matt Frevola. Frevola was forced out of action as a result of one of his corner men testing positive for COVID-19. Also, an odd occurrence took place where Courtney Casey appeared uncomfortable on the scale, which resulted in her limping away from it after her weight was logged.
Thankfully, UFC Vegas 3 avoided the bizarro world that was the UFC Fight Night: Eye/Cavillo weigh-ins last week.
