The “UFC Fight Night 124: Machida vs. Anders” weigh-ins took place Friday in Brazil.

Stream the ceremonial weigh-ins below starting live at 5PM ET/2PM PT.

There was all sorts of drama, as initially three fighters missed weight, including featured fighter Eryk Anders.

Anders tipped the scale at 187.9 pounds, 1.9 pounds over the limit for a non-title middleweight tango. However, Anders was gifted an additional hour to hit his mark because he’s fighting in the main event.

What?!

The UFC official in Belem said the Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission (CABMMA) told the media that Anders was given an additional hour after on-site doctors, as well as opponent Lyoto Machida (pictured), gave their approval.
