Summary
All 14 fighters made weight Saturday for Sunday’s UFC Freedom 250 on the White House South Lawn, clearing the card to proceed without late changes.
Diego Lopes was the only unusual case: he first hit 146 pounds for his featherweight bout with Steve Garcia, then returned at 154 pounds in clothes as a potential main-event alternate.
The two title fights stayed on track with Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje both at 155 for the lightweight championship, while Alex Pereira weighed 251 and Ciryl Gane 248 for the interim heavyweight belt.
Elsewhere, Derrick Lewis came in at the heavyweight limit of 265 against Josh Hokit’s 231, and the rest of the card also landed within their divisions’ limits.
