The fighters are weighed in and we've got the rare event with no misses. Well, kind of; TJ Waldburger fainted while cutting weight a few hours ago, so that fight is scrapped. 

Otherwise, we've got one prelim on UFC Fight Pass at 530pm ET, followed by televised prelims on FS1 at 6pm and the main card on the same channel at 8pm. 

Enjoy!

PS. All you foos picking Bigfoot are cray. Money to be made on Mir in this one.

Wow, Bigfoot managed to look even worse than against Arlovski. Very unhealthy looking in general, and horribly slow and chinny. TRT should have been allowed, at least for him.

@theMMAMessiah  I was making a silly joke you dummy, because every pick I make is for fun.  Unlike you, who thinks his pick % will land him a job at Fox Sports or ESPN as an MMA analyst.
