UFC 319’s official weigh-ins took place Friday ahead of Saturday’s middleweight title fight between champion Dricus du Plessis and challenger Khamzat Chimaev at United Center in Chicago.
All fighters successfully made weight for the August 16 event. The card underwent late changes due to injuries, with two bouts rescheduled and newcomer Baisangur Susurkaev added against Eric Nolan.
Tension escalated during the final face-off as Chimaev got physical with du Plessis, requiring security intervention. The main card begins at 10 PM ET on ESPN+ PPV.
