The most influential commission in the country has given the go-ahead for earlier weigh-ins.
The Nevada Athletic Commission unanimously approved morning weigh-ins Tuesday at its meeting after a proposal from the UFC. The change in procedure will be in place for International Fight Week, which encompasses UFC 200, The Ultimate Fighter 23 Finale and UFC Fight Night: dos Anjos vs. Alvarez in July.
For those cards, fighters will be able to weigh-in between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. the day before the fight at the fighter hotel, rather than the usual time of 4 p.m. There will still be an afternoon "weigh-in" for broadcast where the official weights will be announced.
