Everything is officially set for UFC Sacramento after all twenty six fighters successfully hit their marks during Friday morning’s weigh-ins. The spotlight remains firmly on the main event, where middleweight contenders Anthony Hernandez and Gregory Rodrigues both cleared the scales without incident. Hernandez tipped the scales at 186 pounds while Rodrigues came in slightly leaner at 185, ensuring that there will be no delays heading into Saturday night’s clash.
The co-main event featuring heavyweights Serghei Spivac and Vitor Petrino also moved forward smoothly. Spivac registered at 257 pounds and Petrino followed suit at 246, keeping the momentum building toward what promises to be a hard hitting encounter between two of the division’s most imposing figures. Across the rest of the card, from bantamweight bouts to the heavier divisions, every athlete met their required weight limit.
One of the more intriguing stories emerging from the weigh-ins involves Reinier de Ridder. Known as the Dutch Knight, De Ridder is making a strategic return to the light heavyweight division by hitting exactly 205 pounds for his debut outing. This move represents a shift back to familiar territory for the former ONE Championship titleholder, who previously found success at 205 and 225 pounds before a recent stint at middleweight ended with consecutive losses to Caio Borralho and Brendan Allen.
Standing across from him will be Roman Dolidze, who weighed in at 206 pounds. Dolidze enters this bout with an undefeated record of three wins and zero losses specifically within the light heavyweight class, setting up a high stakes tactical battle between two veterans of different promotions now colliding under the UFC banner. With all contractual obligations met on Friday, fans can look forward to a full slate of action starting tomorrow evening on Paramount+.
