If ever there was an event tailor-made for the hardcore fan, this is it. Use it to convert friends, family and everything in between into MMA fanatics.
Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 6pm ET. Then, switch over to FOX Sports 2 (not FS1) for four more televised prelims at 8pm. Some random other sport BS is on FS1.
And then it'sssssssss TIIIIIMMMMMMEEEEEEEEE!

I'd have black beauty and you'd have a new AV :)
Yup, got some weird ones in there, so it's a long shot, but you never know, I may have a time machine :))

Oh, and Scoggins is the future FLW GOAT so I picked him. And I had Gastelum until I saw him look looking malnourished and confused at the weigh-ins. This is a great fight for him, Rick Story is like the perfect measuring stick at WW.

But if I went 0 for 13 my only real surprise would be if Forte lost.

Spencer I think can hang in there 'till Garcia gasses and Trevino/Forte was a hard one for me because Forte really impressed me against Terry Etim but he's kinda all over the place with his weight and doesn't seem dedicated so I'm giving Trevino's perfect record the benefit of the doubt here.
Whiteford, well, I'm hoping he's going to start the card off with an underdog bang for me ... I actually think Pineda's pretty solid, but Whiteford looked good on the feet vs. Jimy and then had some great ground transitions with him too before losing to a grappler who's 10 times better than the pit, so I'm hoping he can overwhelm Pineda on the ground.
To tell you the truth, I think this is the UFC card I'm doubting myself on the most since ... ever. But I'm "hail mary"-ing it ...
