The UFC on FOX 5 weigh-in results are complete and all but one of the fighters made weight. One half of the main event struggled to make weight as Nate Diaz needed three tries to meet the 155 pound mark but was finally able to do so.

Raphael Assuncao came in a little heavy, but was able to make weight on his second attempt. Henry Martinez will forfeit 20% of his purse to Daron Cruickshank after not being able to make the 155 pound weight limit. All other fighters made their marks and are ready to go.
