MINNEAPOLIS – Official fighter weigh-ins for this weekend’s “UFC on FX 5: Browne vs. Bigfoot” take place Thursday, and the public is welcome to attend the free ceremony.

However, the weigh-ins originally were set to take place at Minneapolis’ Target Center, which also hosts Friday’s FX-broadcast event, but have now been moved to the city’s Pantages Theater.

UFC officials on Wednesday announced the move, which was necessitated by the WNBA’s Minnesota Lynx.
