The official weigh-ins for UFC on ESPN+ 23 flew by in Busan. All the fighters hit the scale, and made the weight, in around 30 minutes.

With everyone on weight all the scheduled match-ups are good to go. That includes the main event, which pits former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar versus ‘The Korean Zombie’ Chan Sung Jung. Both fighters came in at 146 lbs for the bout, which will be contested in the featherweight division. Edgar makes weight despite being a somewhat late replacement, filling in for Brian Ortega who withdrew from the card due to an ACL injury.
