ABU DHABI – The fighters took to the scale at the host hotel on Yas Island ahead of UFC on ESPN+ 30 with three athletes failing to make weight during a drawn-out session ahead of Wednesday night’s fights. The main event was made official early in the session, with Calvin Kattar and Dan Ige both making weight with ease for their featherweight headliner, while the co-main event between Ryan Benoit and Tim Elliott was also confirmed with both men hitting the flyweight mark with no issues. There were a few weight misses further down the card, however.
