Here are the official weigh-in results for tomorrow night’s UFC 165 card in Toronto, Ontario, which will feature light-heavyweight champ Jon Jones take on Alexander Gustafsson in the main event.

Both men came in at 204.5 pounds for the tilt, before squaring off in front of a boisterous Toronto crowd for several moments. If Jones wins he’ll set a new record for title defenses at six.

The only fighter who didn’t make weight on his initial attempt was bantamweight Ivan Menjivar, who weighed in at 137 for his fight with Wilson Reis. The latter tipped the scales at 135.

UFC 165 will be hosted by Toronto’s Air Canada Centre and the main card will be broadcast on pay-per-view.
