It all goes down tomorrow night (Sat., Feb. 21, 2026) at UFC Houston LIVE on Paramount+ from inside Toyota Center in Houston, Tex., but first all fighters had to step on stage for Friday’s ceremonial weigh ins and one final staredown with their opponent.
Leading the charge at UFC Houston will be a main event clash between former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland and surging contender Anthony Hernandez. Strickland is a sizeable underdog for his return to action, but if he can stave off the wrestling of “Fluffy” he’ll have a really good chance at getting the win. If Strickland is victorious, he’s looking to fight current UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev at the White House card.
Adding to Saturday’s action will be a co-headliner between welterweight veteran Geoff Neal and striker Uros Medic, who possesses a 100% finish rate. UFC Houston will also feature the likes of Dan Ige, Michel Pereira, Chidi Njokuani, Punahele Soriano, and Serghei Spivac.
Friday’s ceremonial weigh ins video stream can be seen in the above player via YouTube beginning at 6 p.m. ET. It will have every fighter from the card and provide each of them one last chance to size their opponent up.
