UFC 311 weigh-in results: Aside from stunning Arman Tsarukyan withdrawal, everyone on point

LOS ANGELES – MMA Junkie was on scene and reporting live from Friday's official UFC 311 fighter weigh-ins.

The early weigh-ins took place at the UFC host hotel in Los Angeles and preceded the ceremonial weigh-ins for the fans, which take place at 7 p.m. ET at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, Calif. The same venue hosts Saturday's event (pay-per-view, ESPNews/Disney+, ESPN+).

A major development unfolded during the weigh-ins window when it was announced that Arman Tsarukyan suffered a back injury that forced him out of his title fight with Islam Makhachev. Tsarukyan did not make it to the scale.

Among those who did weigh in were Makhachev (26-1 MMA, 15-1 UFC), as well as bantamweight champ Merab Dvalishvili (18-4 MMA, 11-2 UFC) and challenger Umar Nurmagomedov (18-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC), who meet in the co-main event.
