[ad_1]

Another season of The Ultimate Fighter ends with the final on Friday 28 TUF: Dos Anjos vs. Usman scheduled to take place in Las Vegas after Friday's weigh-in.

The main event features two heavyweights trying to secure a place in the title with former lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos, weighing 170 pounds during Friday's official weigh-in. His opponent, the super-fast welterweight talent Kamaru Usman, is mounted on the scale at 170.5 pounds.

The 28th season of The Ultimate Fighter featured heavyweight men and featherweight women, and their latest fights are now over.

In the women's featherweight division, Macy Chibadon weighed 144 pounds, while Pannie Kianzad weighed 145 pounds.

Their counterparts in the men's heavyweight division also gained weight, with Justin Frazier quickly gaining the upper hand at 264 pounds, just two pounds from the upper limit of the heaviest UFC weight clbad. Juan Espino was not far behind him, tipping the scales at 260 pounds.

Two fighters lost weight during the Friday night fights. Ji Yeon Kim was the first fighter on the scale, but she weighed 130.5 pounds for her flyweight fight with Antonina Shevchenko, 4.5 pounds more than the limit for an untitled fight in the weight clbad.

Rick Glenn, who is expected to face Kevin Aguilar in the fight on the FS1 portion of the preliminary fights, weighed 2.5 pounds above the limit for his featherweight non-weight bout to 148.5 pounds.

If their opponents agree to accept the fights, Kim and Glenn would be required to give up a portion of their respective purses, usually between 20 and 30%, which would return to their opponents.
