Predictions: 2 of 2 Winners, 1 Perfect, 150 Points   |   Tied for 398th

The fighters are weighed in and nary a day-of card change in sight ... me likes the new Bellator. 

Prelims kick off on Spike.com at 7pm ET followed by the main card on Spike TV at 9pm. 

McGregor Mania has completely drowned this one out, but it's a solid card with a quality main and co-main. 

Keep it on the Tapologys Friday night.

I was live at the weigh ins... things got heated between straus/pit bull. This is the fight to watch for the hard core mma fans. I've been to a few bellator shows and this seems to have that buzz in the air. Tune in gonna be a really good card.

Bondole looks horrible.

Edit: Oh, wow. Well, I'm sure that's the first loss of the night for most of us.
