Two heavyweights for the 2024 Apex Finals

LAS VEGAS – MMA Junkie was on hand to report live from the official fighter weigh-in for UFC Fight Night 247 (ESPN+) on Friday at the UFC Apex.

Participants included standout welterweights Neil Magny (29-12 MMA, 22-11 UFC) and Carlos Prates (20-6 MMA, 3-0 UFC), who will meet in the main event.

The originally scheduled co-headliner between Ricky Turcios and Bernardo Sopaj was canceled due to a medical issue on Turcios' side after he gained weight.

Additionally, two fighters on the preliminary card were missing weight. Short-term newcomer Zach Scroggin weighed three pounds over the limit in the welterweight division for his scheduled fight with Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos, while Melissa Mullins was one pound over the limit in the women's bantamweight division against her debut opponent Klaudia Sygula.
