The light heavyweight title fight and co‑main bantamweight title clash drew extra attention. Below you’ll find full details from the official results, insight into weight cutting, and what these numbers might foreshadow.
Scale Spotlight: Champions and Challengers Hit the Mark
Both championship bouts for UFC 320 were made official at the scale. In the main event, Magomed Ankalaev and Alex Pereira also met the light heavyweight title limit. The rematch, which headlines the card, now proceeds with the title on the line for both fighters.

UFC 320 Weigh-In Highlights and Key Takeaways
1. All Fighters Made Weight Except One
While most fighters on the UFC 320 card made weight without issue, which is a rarity for a 14-fight lineup where late replacements and extreme cuts often lead to misses, not everyone was in the clear. Macy Chiasson missed the non-title bantamweight limit by 1.5 pounds, weighing in at 137.5 lbs for her scheduled bout with Yana Santos. As a result, the fight will proceed at catchweight, and Chiasson will forfeit a percentage of her purse. The rest of the card, including all four fighters in the title bouts, successfully made weight, setting the stage for a fully intact UFC 320 on Saturday night.
2. Pereira’s Weight Cut in Focus
Former champion Alex Pereira reportedly arrived in Las Vegas weighing around 234 pounds, meaning he dropped nearly 30 pounds to make the light heavyweight limit. Such a drastic cut could have performance implications on fight night, especially in later rounds.
3. Title Fights Proceed Without Issue
Both the light heavyweight and bantamweight championship bouts are fully official, with no weight-related complications. This sets up a clean, competitive event with no title eligibility questions hanging over the headliners.
