UFC Vegas 106 is almost here. Tomorrow evening, the UFC Apex facility in Enterprise, NV serves as the host venue for the final event from MMA’s No. 1 promotion in the world. All that stands between the fighters and the walk to the famous Octagon are the ceremonial weigh-ins later on today.
Live coverage of tomorrow’s show begins in the late afternoon at 4 pm ET/ 1 pm PT on ESPN+ with the undercard, followed at 7 pm ET/ 4 pm PT with the main card. 12 bouts are on the schedule for tomorrow night at UFC Vegas 106.
Earlier Friday, the official weigh-in window took place. Unlike some weigh-ins that have happened in the past, this morning’s trip to the scales provided nothing in the way of drama.
At the top of the bill for tomorrow night’s extravaganza of competitive violence is a welterweight showcase matching No. 8 contender Gilbert Burns (22-8 MMA, 15-8 UFC) and No. 12 contender Michael Morales (17-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC.) This five-round headliner will go ahead as scheduled after both contestants tipped the scales within the 171-lb nontitle maximum for welterweights.
Burns weighed-in at 170 lbs on the button, while Morales clocked in at 170 1/2 lbs.
Right before the headliner, the co-main attraction of the night sees a light heavyweight tussle matching Rodolfo Bellato (12-2-1 MMA, 1-0-1 UFC) with Paul Craig (17-9-1 MMA, 9-9-1 UFC). The former tipped the scales at 205 1/2 lbs, with the latter coming in at 205 even.
