UFC on Fox 13 Weigh-in Results: Nate Diaz Misses Weight

Junior dos Santos and Stipe Miocic made weight on Friday. | Jeff Sherwood/Sherdog.com



Junior dos Santos has already reached the Ultimate Fighting Championship mountaintop. Stipe Miocic wants to get there.

Dos Santos tipped the scales at 242 pounds for his heavyweight main event with Miocic (243) at UFC on Fox 13 on Saturday at the US Airways Arena in Phoenix. The lone hiccup at Friday’s official weigh-in came when lightweight co-headliners Nate Diaz (160.6) and Rafael dos Anjos (156) took to the scale. Diaz missed weight by more than four pounds and will be fined 20 percent of his purse.
