Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 291st

Prelims kick off at approximately 730pm ET on UFC Fight Pass, followed by FOX Sports 1 prelims at 8pm and the main card on PPV at 10pm. 

Not quite "best card ever" material, but solid nonetheless.

Good luck!

Seems like a bad matchup for Elliott, but that doesn't mean it can't be action packed.

That was a fun one. Elliot didn't give a **** about who Benavidez is and was putting him in dangerous spots, but Benavidez proves he is elite in the division.

Just as I was wondering why Beefcake was to fixated on that specific pass to mount (which looked high risk with potential to be thrown off the top) that happened and I was like "ohhhh" :)
