UFC 251 Usman vs. Masvidal: Official Weigh In Results, Start Times, Where To Watch

July 10, 2020 by Christopher James

The fighters competing at UFC 251 hit the scale this morning,and out of 26 that stepped to the scale, there were only two that missed weight, and both fights affected are on the early prelims. Other than the 2 fighters that missed, the rest of the athletes made their contracted weight without issue.

Main event fighters Kamaru Usman and Jorge Masvidal made weight easily. Many felt Masvidal would have issues because of the short notice nature of the booking, and him eating a lil pizza in Rome on his way to Abu Dhabi. Masvidal is a professional as is Welterweight Champion Usman, and both men had no  problem doing the job of stepping on the scale at championship weight.

Below are the official weigh in results as well as start times for the different segments of the card, and where to watch.
