Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 2 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 106th

UFC Fight Pass launches tomorrow morning, and with it, a solid card from Singapore featuring a bunch of newbies and some familiar faces. 

The action is set to kick off at 630am ET with all 10 bouts airing on the UFC's new digital network. 

From what I understand, the service will basically function like DVR, allowing you to rewind the broadcast at any point, pause it or come into the broadcast at any time. 

Prelims Broadcast (630am ET)

Main Card Broadcast (9am ET)

Nice to see that Jon Anik has now stopped over-pronouncing Reyes' last name like he does with every name that is even remotely exotic..



Oh look Kimura won. Nice...

Kimura did what he was supposed to, but hopefully Delos Reyes gets another shot.  I bet with some ground game work, he could do well, he's definitely got  some pop in his striking!

If the night keeps up like this it'll be hard to pick a SOTN. But I'm not complaining.

Kimura definitely has a lot of talent on the ground but that's like the 4th time he's been dropped already.  He needs to work on his striking or he won't make it when he moves up in competition.

Kimura's now been outgunned on the feet by all three of his opponents in the UFC. He could stand to make some improvements in that area, but I love watching him work on the ground. That armbar was sick, but it'll be hard to top Doane for SOTN honors.

I think Taisumov gets a Submission win here to make it 3 subs in a row for this card. I think Bang really only has a punchers chance in this one.
