UFC Fight Island 8 weigh-in results and video

The UFC remains on Fight Island (aka Yas Island, Abu Dhabi) with a card that begins at 9 AM on the east coast on Wednesday. The main event is a fight between two welterweights looking to bust The into the top 5; Michael Chiesa and Neil Magny.

Outside of those two fighters there are very few ranked and/or established UFC talents on the card. The co-main for this one is Warlley Alves taking on promotional sophomore Mounir Lazzez.

The card does have a couple of notable debuts. Francisco Figueiredo, brother of UFC flyweight champ Deiveson Figueiredo, goes against Jerome Rivera.
