Predictions: 11 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 675 Points   |   Tied for 161st

The fighters are weighed in and two missed the mark. Felipe Arantes missed weight by 2 lbs, forefeiting 20% of his purse to Perez, while Charles Oliveira tied a UFC record for his fifth career miss (he now shares the distinction with John Lineker.) He was off by a whopping 9 lbs and will forfeit 30% of his purse to Lamas, who agreed to what is now essentially a lightweight fight he weighed in at 146 for. 

By my (rough) estimates, this should grant Lamas in the neighborhood of an extra $15k for taking the fight, win or lose, and the 30% fine marks a step in a new direction for the promotion, which will now be increasing fines depending on the severity of the miss. 

Anyway, this is a great card overall. The action kicks off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching to FS1 for the rest of the night at 8pm.

Enjoy!

Happy for Soto, great submission! I'm glad he's finding some success now after dropping his first three fights. I've been rooting for him since he put on an okay showing vs. Dillashaw.

I remember when it seemed like Soto might become the man at 135 before getting stopped by Joe Warren out of no where. I'm definitely glad to see him getting some UFC wins.

Arantes looks really fresh considering the fact he didn't come to Mexico early, or look good at the weigh-ins. Surprising.

Perez should still win the decision here despite the last couple seconds arm-triangle choke scare.

Decent win for Goyito.  Still, he was in trouble at a lot of points in the fight.  Some of the better strikers at 135 will pick him apart if he isn't careful.
