If you happen to be in "Beantown" this weekend (Sun., Jan. 18, 2015) to catch UFC Fight Night 59 (fight card here), which goes down from the TD Garden in Boston, Mass., there are plenty of pre-fight festivities to partake prior to the event.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will hold its customary weigh ins this Sat. (Jan. 17) right down the street at the Orpheum Theater, which will also include a Q & A with featherweight champion Jose Aldo, prior to the fighters tipping the scale.
But if you want to get a glimpse of "Junior" and the weigh ins, you'll need a ticket to get into the theater, according to UFC Vice President of Public Relations, Dave Sholler (via Twitter). And since space is limited, it will be on a first come, first served basis.

Considering they are both limited and free, don't beat around the bush on this one.
UFC Fight Night 59, which airs on FOX Sports 1, will feature a main event bout pitting 145-pound sensation Conor McGregor against German kickboxer Dennis Siver. In the co-main event of the evening, Donald Cerrone will battle former UFC lightweight champion Ben Henderson.
With Conor-mania taking over Boston this week, you can bet these tickets will go fast.
