UFC Belgrade Set as All Fighters Make Weight Ahead of Medic–Rodriguez Main Event

Completed weigh-ins clear the way for Saturday's UFC debut in Serbia with Uroš Medić entering as the betting favorite.

Overview

  • All 28 fighters hit the scale on Friday, July 31, finalizing the 14-fight card and removing any weigh-in drama before the event.
  • Uroš Medić and Daniel Rodriguez both weighed 171 pounds for the five-round welterweight main event that will close the card.
  • Sportsbooks installed Medic as a substantial favorite, and analysts expect an early striking fight that could shape Medić’s rise in the division.
  • Aleksandar Rakić will move up to heavyweight to face Marcin Tybura after weighing 237.5 pounds, and another short-notice matchup produced a large size gap.
  • Alexander Poppeck accepted a short-notice heavyweight debut at 215 pounds versus Jovan Leka at 262.5 pounds, a reported 47.5-pound disparity that raises competitive and safety questions.
