DENVER – MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) was on scene for today's official "UFC 135: Jones vs. Rampage" weigh-ins, where all 20 competitors successfully made weight for the UFC's return to its original host city.
Today's festivities took place at Denver's Wells Fargo Theater. The nearby Pepsi Center hosts Saturday's pay-per-view event.
Check out images of all the fighters, including current UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and former titleholder Quinton "Rampage" Jackson.
A lively crowd was vocal throughout the session, and most fighters were well-received. Main event fighters Jones and Jackson each received a mixed welcome, but the crowd seemed to lean slightly in the challenger's favor.
Meanwhile, co-feature contestant Josh Koscheck was heavily booed during his time on stage.
The weigh-ins were some of the most intense in recent memory with a handful of fighters nearly coming to blows on the stage. Whit was forced to separate Nick Diaz and Takanori Gomi, Nick Ring and Tim Boetsch, as well as Junior Assuncao and Eddie Yagin. Meanwhile, Jones, who usually looks away from his opponents during the staredowns, turned directly toward Jackson and smiled before the two engaged in a little last-minute trash talk.
