We're one step closer to the Light Heavyweight Championship bout between Jon Jones and Rashad Evans, as each fighter made weight for their UFC 145 grudge match on Friday. In front of a raucous crowd at Atlanta's Fox Theatre, Jones and Evans received a vocal mix of cheers and boos, then went forehead to forehead in an intense face off prior to tomorrow's fight.

All other fighters on the card made weight, save for lightweight John Makdessi, who came in three pounds heavy for his fight with Anthony Njokuani on the FX preliminary card. Makdessi will be fined 20% of his purse, which will go to Njokuani for the infraction. Full weigh-in results are below:
