UFC on ESPN 47 video: Sean Strickland, Abus Magomedov make weight for main event

LAS VEGAS – The UFC on ESPN 47 main event is official after Sean Strickland and Abus Magomedov made weight on Friday.

Strickland (26-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) and Magomedov (25-4-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) are set for a five-round middleweight bout on Saturday at the UFC Apex. The entire card airs on ESPN and streams on ESPN+.

Before they can step in the octagon, though, both men had to do their business on the scale. They did just that, with Strickland registering at 186 pounds and Magomedov at 186 pounds, as well.

Check out the video above to see Strickland and Magomedov weigh in for the UFC on ESPN 47 headliner.
