Kayla Harrison steps onto the scale, makes 135 pounds, and Amanda Nunes follows at exactly the same weight. Their championship matchup clears its morning hurdle while UFC's studio panel weighs a different question: what will Nunes look like after her extended absence from competition?

The official morning weigh-in show drew about 835,000 views in its first 11 hours, far ahead of the usual start for the channel's long broadcasts. Separate weigh-in uploads and the latest Embedded episode also drew unusually large early audiences.

Megan Olivi hosts alongside Daniel Cormier, Dominick Cruz and Michael Chiesa at The Theater at Madison Square Garden. Between trips to the scale, the desk contrasts Ciryl Gane's calm with Josh Hokit's aggression and debates favorite women's fights. Cormier questions how readily Nunes can recover competitive sharpness after years away.

The broadcast carries Polymarket sponsorship and includes a betting-odds segment.

There is a farewell running through the morning, too. Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson's retirement bout prompts the panel to revisit favorite moments from his career, while viewers also discuss his departure in the comments. That retrospective arrives well into the show, after the early championship weigh-ins, giving Thompson his own space amid the main-event buildup.
