UFC 156 Weigh-In Results And Video

The weigh-ins have now taken place for tomorrow night’s UFC 156 event in Las Vegas and you can see what all the fighters tipped the scales at below.

Jose Aldo’s known to have difficult weight cuts at times, but he seemed energized today, while Frankie Edgar looked to have had no problem taking off the extra pounds to make his featherweight debut.

Earlier Alistair Overeem had looked noticeably less defined than usual after his first fight back following a steroid suspension, but he still came in big at 264lbs.

Two fighters came in overweight, and coincidentally they were the first two fighters of the evening, Francisco Rivera and Edwin Figueroa who’ll now get extra time to make the 136lb limit.
