The fighters are weighed in and everyone's set to go for one of the bigger Fight Nights in some time. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 6pm ET before moving over to FS1 from 7 until midnight. 

I'm attending this one live, so Greg's taking over in the FightCenter.

Does anyone really think Diaz' flatfooted boxing style is going to work against Anderson?  Look at what Condit did against Diaz.  Anderson is like a bigger better version of Condit.  

Unless Anderson has seriously fallen far off, it will look like Diaz vs Noons 1.

flying_frontkick - iv always been a big tea drinker, but since giving up alcohol (medical reasons) a few years back its become a i;ll drink it when everyone else would have a beer thing. Quite useful for the caffine given the time difference on most ufc cards.

Lots of round three finishes which is making my score pretty unimpressive despite going 4-0 so far.
