Predictions: 4 of 10 Winners, 2 Perfect, 250 Points   |   Tied for 885th

Prelims are set to stream on Facebook at 5pm ET followed by a quality six-fight main card on FOX Sports 1.

Had a few shaky-looking fighters at weigh-ins today, so pick lines might be changing. Seems like there are quite a few bouts with serious upset potential on this card, right through to the main event.

Alcantara should have went to MW instead. His last two fights have looked like crap.

If I don't get this Assuncao pick, my card is doomed.

Man Dillashaw looks better and better every time I see him.  That was an impressive first round.
