Flyweight title rematch set as UFC 331 weigh-ins complete
UFC 331 will feature a flyweight championship rematch between Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja after both fighters made weight, and the full card proceeded without any weigh-in issues.
Joshua Van and Alexandre Pantoja will headline UFC 331 in a flyweight title rematch after both athletes stepped on the scale at the required 125 pounds. Van, the 24-year-old champion who captured the belt in a 26-second knockout last year, aims to prove his initial victory was not a fluke. Pantoja, the former champion returning after an arm injury that forced him to relinquish the title, seeks to regain his belt following an eight-fight winning streak prior to the injury.
All 12 fighters on the Los Angeles card made weight, resulting in a weigh-in session without any missed limits. The event will be broadcast in its entirety on Paramount+, with preliminary bouts beginning at 5:30 p.m. ET/2:30 p.m. PT and the main card kicking off at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
Other weigh-in results included Arman Tsarukyan at 156 lb versus Mauricio Ruffy at 155 lb, Patricio Freire at 145.5 lb versus Doo Ho Choi at 146 lb, and Gable Steveson at 240 lb versus Sean Sharaf at 241 lb, among several additional matchups that met their respective limits.
