UFC Fight Night: Arman Tsarukyan vs. Dan Hooker -- UFC Qatar -- takes place on Saturday, and MMA News is here to bring you the official weigh-in results.
This will be the UFC's debut in the country of Qatar, making it the third country in the Middle East -- following the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia -- to host the Octagon.
The main event will feature a strong lightweight battle as Arman Tsarukyan takes on Dan Hooker.
Tsarukyan has won nine of his last 10, including four straight. This will mark his first fight since defeating Charles Oliveira at UFC 300. He was due to receive a title shot against Islam Makhachev at UFC 311 before being forced out of the fight on the day of weigh-ins.
Hooker has won three in a row and four of his last six. This is his first fight since defeating Mateusz Gamrot at UFC 305, a bout that earned Fight of the Night honors.
The co-main event will be a pivotal welterweight matchup, as former champion Belal Muhammad takes on Ian Machado Garry.
This will be Muhammad's first fight since dropping the welterweight title to Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 315 in May. In Garry's last fight, he rebounded from his first UFC loss by defeating Carlos Prates at UFC Kansas City in April.
The main card will also feature a light heavyweight battle between Volkan Oezdemir and Alonzo Menifield, a welterweight matchup featuring Jack Hermansson and Myktybek Orolbai, a heavyweight showdown between Waldo Cortes-Acosta and Shamil Gaziev, and a flyweight fight featuring Tagir Ulanbekov and former Bellator and RIZIN champion Kyoji Horiguchi -- the latter of whom is making his UFC return.
