Predictions: 4 of 10 Winners, 1 Perfect, 255 Points   |   Tied for 1092nd

Fight Pass prelims kick off at 7pm ET, followed by FS1 prelims at 8pm and the PPV main card at 10pm. 

Best card of the year so far (on paper), and probably the best we're going to get for some time. 

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Weidman is controlling the range better than Machida is right now.  His striking has improved in a huge way.

Machida needs to step it up, he's getting edged out in the fight so far. Weidman is executing a very good gameplan for defeating Machida.
