Terrifying moment at the UFC 324 weigh-in on Friday … when fighter Cameron Smotherman collapsed on stage after stepping off the scale.

The concerning situation played out minutes ago in Las Vegas … when all the fighters on the first-ever Paramount+ card showed up to make weight for Saturday’s fights.

28-year-old Smotherman made weight for his fight against Ricky Turcios at 135.5 pounds … but as he walked toward the exit, he fell face-first to the ground.

Medical staffers on hand rushed to help him … and he was carried away.
