One of the most stacked cards in a while is coming to us fo free tomorrow night ... and ALL 10 fights are broadcast on FS1. No more of that FS2 nonsense. 

The first prelim kicks off at 7pm ET, with the arbitrarily-defined "main card" going live at 10pm.

Confirmed tomorrow's cage is the small, 25-footer. Keep in mind when watching the two heavyweight fights.

What did they change the main card to four fights? This morning it was six.

I think because they moved the main card back an hour so it will start right when Bellator ends.

lol! I usually pick a UFC bout when it's announced not as a whole event, so I went and looked at my picks for this one ... you think I've picked enough finishes?



If I score a black beauty on this it'll be card of the century :)

Did anyone see Dana call Derrick Lewis "Brunson" in a Fox Sports 1 interview?

That shouldn't have happened since the groin strike contributed to the TD.

Skelly looks fairly one dimensional unfortunately though. We got to see more of his game than in Tulsa. Soriano needs the finish.

When Soriano got top control I was standing here in my living room screaming STAND UP at the TV. I need to get out more...

This was a very stylistically determined matchup. Where the fight took place was going to determine the outcome. Both fighters a little one dimensional.
