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!

AnikM, Bader definitely has more power than Jones as far as one strike goes. Jones might be better at getting TKO's with his striking followed by ground and pound. But Jones has never scored a K.O with an elbow or even any strike for that matter. Bader has scored two one punch K.O's in his career. So your argument is pretty stupid.

Not true willendorfs. Jones KO'ed Eduardo early in their careers with a clean KO.

10-9 Williams

Williams has no top game apparently. He takes Beal down, but Beal gets up fairly easily within moments.
