UFC 304 Weigh-In Results: Title Bouts Set, One Fighter Misses Weight



UFC 304 weigh-in results: 2 title bouts official, 1 fighter misses
Leon Edwards

Manchester, England – As UFC 304 draws near, the excitement in Manchester is palpable, with the official weigh-ins confirming the eagerly awaited title bouts. England’s champions, Leon Edwards and Tom Aspinall have both successfully made weight, ready to defend their titles on Saturday night.


Leon Edwards will step into the octagon at 170 pounds to defend his welterweight title for the third time against Belal Muhammad, who weighed in at 169 pounds. This bout is a chance for Edwards to solidify his dominance after their first encounter ended in an unfortunate no-contest due to an eye poke.


In the heavyweight division, Tom Aspinall weighed in at 251 pounds for his interim title defense against Curtis Blaydes, who came in at 256 pounds. Their last fight ended abruptly in just 15 seconds due to a knee injury Aspinall sustained. Now, both fighters are determined to settle the score.


Out of the 28 fighters set to compete at Co-op Live, all but one made weight. Jake Hadley, stepping in on short notice for Ramon Taveras to face Caolan Loughran, came in at 137 pounds—one pound over the bantamweight limit for a non-title bout. As a result, the fight will proceed as a catchweight, with Hadley forfeiting 20 percent of his purse as a penalty. Despite the miss, Hadley remains resolute.
