UFC Fight Night: Hidalgo public weigh-ins replay

UFC Fight Night 94 takes place on Saturday night at State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, Texas, and is broadcast live FOX Sports 1.

Headliner Dustin Poirier will be looking for a win so huge it earns him a title shot. However, the waiting line is stiff. The current front runner is featherweight champion Conor McGregor, with Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson eager for the shot.

The public weigh-in ceremony took place on Friday, September 16, at 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT), and stremed live on The UnderGround, courtesy of the UFC.

However, the UFC has instituted a new, safer procedure, wherein fighters are given a two-hour window in which to weigh in, between 10:00 a.m. and noon, on the day before the fight. Fighters had previously weighed in in the evening, and then many took IVs. Unfortunately, the body does not always rehydrate within 24 hours, leaving the brain more susceptible to injury.

When the UFC selected the US Anti-Doping Agency as their independent drug testing body, the use of IVs was prohibited, as it can mask use of PEDs. In response, the early weigh ins were instituted, and everyone is happier.

These official weigh-ins have taken place, and the results are below the video.
