MESA, Ariz. – MMAjunkie was on scene and reporting live from today’s early and official UFC Fight Night 103 fighter weigh-ins, where all 24 fighters made weight without issue.

The early weigh-ins, which precede the day’s ceremonial affair, took place at the UFC host hotel in Mesa, Ariz. The UFC Fight Night 103 ceremonial weigh-ins take place at 7 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT, 5 p.m. MT local time) at Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, the same venue that hosts Sunday’s card on FS1.

UFC officials recently adopted the early weigh-ins to allow fighters more time to rehydrate before the event.

Among those weighing in were headliners B.J. Penn (16-10-2 MMA, 12-9-2 UFC) and fast-rising contender Yair Rodriguez (8-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC). UFC Hall of Famer Penn returns from retirement to take on Rodriguez, a top featherweight prospect.

Penn weighed in at 146 pounds, while Rodriguez checked in shortly after at 145.

The two-hour session ended early, with all fighters making weight with 45 minutes to spare. Not a single fighter needed to use a towel to his their mark, and all 12 fights are now official.
