The dual weigh-ins mean fighters have longer to rehydrate in the morning, but still can do the afternoon ceremonial weigh-ins and faceoffs that have become a tradition in the UFC.

There was a scare when Cormier and Johnson weighed in with only minutes left. DC weighed in at 206.2, but returned two minutes later and was 205, using a trick that shouldn’t work on high school officials. Johnson then weighed in with seconds to go at 203.8 and the entire card was official.
