Predictions: 4 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 300 Points   |   Tied for 812th

The fighters are weighed in and both Johny Hendricks and Ray Borg missed weight. Both fights are still a go. 

We may have lost Velasquez-Werdum, but there are some great match-ups on this one along with a pair of extremely compelling title fights. 

We've got one prelim on UFC Fight Pass at 730pm ET followed by FS1 prelims at 8pm. The PPV main card, as always, airs at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

Glad Magny got the W.

Motley Crue "Shout at the Devil" fun fact. Brock Lesnar used that intro.

How can you root against a guy who comes out to 80's hair band music.

@mbach

That's nothing.  If you miss weight in Japan, the promoter can take up to half your purse (someone correct me if I'm wrong on that) and your fight becomes a no contest if you win.

My fiancee's father is a casual who likes knockouts. He's loving this scramblefest. Casual approved grappling match.

@mbach  I'm not completely sure about the percentage.  I know they take the amount based on how much you missed weight (which they base on kilos rather than lbs).  But in Japan, and in Asia in general, they don't **** around.

All 3 rounds no doubt about it. If Borg can get his weight on point, he's a factor at flw.
