Editor's Note: The live event has concluded
UFC 313 takes place this Saturday in Las Vegas, but before the fighters step into the cage at T-Mobile Arena, they’ll need to step onto the scale at the official weigh-in.
To help get you set for all the action, Sportsnet’s Aaron Bronsteter will be joined by Anna Dua live at the UFC Apex throughout the official weigh-in window on Friday morning.
Bronsteter and Dua were on site reporting the official weights for all UFC 313 athletes and interview some of the participating fighters after they’ve weighed in.
