Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 525 Points   |   Tied for 256th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set (for real this time) for what should be an epic night of fights. 

The weigh-ins weren't without their drama. Johny Hendricks missed weight by .25 lbs and will forfeit 20% of his purse to Kelvin Gastelum and Miesha Tate weighed in at literally the last possible minute, 9:59am local time. If she had arrived 60 seconds later, she would have been removed from the card. 

Anyway, the action kicks off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching to FS1 at 8pm. The PPV main card kicks off at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

I don't think Joe said anything positive about Marin, or anything negative about Sage. 

Anyways, tough to score the last round. Will probably go to Sage, though.

I'm not of fan of Sage but honestly he's got a lot of pressure and too high of expectations for such a young guy. Not really fair to call him a dud. He's so young and with all the Sage haters I'd like to see him do well and I fully expect him to. Get rid of dad as coach first and he should've gotten more time to develope  with Legacy FC.

Sage is the living proof that 20 years old is too early to be in the UFC. He's got some potential, but he risks wasting it all by accumulating losses due to inexperience.

You can't just try for a TD against the cage while getting elbowed in the head.

I had it 29-28 Northcutt. Good bounce back fight and some good learning experiences.

Sage looked like he was trying to train his ground game in that find.  He should have tried to stay standing even though he did win.

Now give Sage Holbrook next. Since ufcwas in such a hurry to rush this kid let him do in the UFC what he should've been doing in the Regionals.

Sage has tons of holes in his game and is a long way from being anything close to a contender.

Yeah losing to Barbarena doesn't look so bad in hindsight now that Bam Bam beat up Warlley Alves who I considered one of the better prospects at 170

Still can't make a decision about Sage.

I'm very confused about his real value...

I have to see more but for now I'm not convinced.

Anyone else have it 29-28 Wasabi??? 
I thought he did a good enough Jon Fitch impression in RNDS 2 & 3 to win the fight.
