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.

Well considering Sanchez is nobody good, fact that he lost would point to the fact he looked like ****. I wonder what Asian winning % is in the UFC? About 4 probably?

That's pretty ballsy for O'Connell to have a Kid Cudi song for his walkout. Didn't he get the memo that pot isn't cool in the UFC. Shouldve came out with an Eric Clapton or Rick James song.

Van Buren doesn't have the chin to hang with O'Connell and he doesn't have the ability to take him down.

This might end up being the KOTN.
