WATCH: UFC Adelaide Weigh-In Highlights
All 28 fighters competing at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre in Australia for UFC Adelaide took to the scales on Friday for the official weigh-ins.
All fighters successfully made weight without difficulty. Heavyweights Junior dos Santos and Tai Tuivasa compete in the main event.
The peak of interest, however, came following the staredown between Mark Hunt and Justin Willis. The intensity seemed to spark an incident backstage that caused a delay in bringing out Mauricio Rua and Tyson Pedro for the weigh-ins, while also prompting Tuivasa to be heard shouting “I’ll f*****’ smash both of you.”
