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.

I can't think of any legit way Cerrone doesn't get a title shot in 2015.

Man those McGregor promos, I have not seen such an inflated ego since after Jones beat Bader and got a title shot.

Tonight's judging has inspired me to become an MMA Judge because the current judges are horrible. Seriously, if anyone knows any promoters or point of contacts for any amateur orgs in VA where I can get some experience let me know please.

I know McGregor is trying to sell himself to the public but he is trying way too hard.

Also, stop *****ing about getting a pick wrong because of a supposed robbery. You have anticipate robberies if you want to be an elite predictor like me. If you can't predict the judges having Stevie Wonder vision, you don't deserve to get the pick right.

@Cal
Pretty sure judges come through athletic commisions.
But if not, Fight night challenge, Revolution fight series, LOC fights etc. All in different areas of VA

Personally I think anybody *****ing about that decision as a robbery or saying either guy won with certainty is an idiot.
