LOS ANGELES – MMA Junkie was on scene and reporting live from Friday's UFC 331 official weigh-ins at the host hotel in Southern California.

The officials preceded the ceremonial weigh-ins for the fans, which begin at 8 p.m. ET at Crypto.com Arena. The same venue hosts Saturday's numbered event on Paramount+.

Among those who weighed in were flyweight champion Joshua Van (16-2 MMA, 10-1 UFC), who puts his belt on the line in the main event vs. former longtime titleholder Alexandre Pantoja (30-6 MMA, 14-4 UFC), whom he took the belt from in a 26-second injury TKO stoppage last December.

Additionally, Arman Tsarukyan (23-3 MMA, 10-2 UFC) meets Mauricio Ruffy (14-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) in a five-round lightweight co-headliner that could send the winner into a title fight.

MMA Junkie carried a live stream of the entire official weigh-in session above, where all 24 athletes scheduled to compete stepped on the scale.
