We are just one day away from UFC 322, and we’ve got the official weigh-in results for you here at MMA News.
UFC 322 takes place from Madison Square Garden in New York City, featuring a number of noteworthy names topped off with two highly anticipated title fights.
The main event will see Jack Della Maddalena defend the UFC welterweight championship against Islam Makhachev.
This will mark JDM's first title defense since capturing the gold with a decision win over Belal Muhammad at UFC 315 in May. Della Maddalena has won 18 fights in a row and has a perfect Octagon record, having not dropped a fight since losing his first two pro outings.
The one-loss Makhachev is the former UFC lightweight champion. He defeated Charles Oliveira for the title at UFC 280 and has since retained the belt against Alexander Volkanovski, Dustin Poirier, and Renato Moicano. He vacated the belt to move up to 170.
The co-main event will see the top two UFC pound-for-pound female fighters clash, as Valentina Shevchenko puts the women's flyweight title on the line against Weili Zhang.
Shevchenko has been a mainstay in the division since moving there from bantamweight in 2018, becoming a two-time champion in the process. After losing and regaining the gold in her trilogy with Alexa Grasso, Shevchenko retained the title against Manon Fiorot at UFC 315. Zhang is a two-time former strawweight champion. Her second reign began at UFC 281, and she went on to retain against Amanda Lemos, Yan Xiaonan, and Tatiana Suarez.
The rest of the main card sees welterweight contenders Sean Brady and Michael Morales in battle, as well as former welterweight champion Leon Edwards being putting up against Carlos Prates and lightweight action featuring Beneil Dariush and Benoit Saint-Denis.
