Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 405 Points   |   Tied for 451st

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for another stellar card to kick off 2015. 

Some people are crapping on the prelims, but if you look closely, you can spot some dangerous potential contenders down there (Bektic, Taisumov, Tumenov, etc.) 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 4pm ET before switching to FS1 at 5pm. At 8pm, the main card begins with Sicilia-Corassani on FOX. 

Enjoy!

Tumenov vs Musoke seems like a better card opener than Corasanni vs Sicilia however.

Sometimes you've got to try to think of it in terms of each broadcast being it's own card, with Musoke vs. Tumenov being the main event on FS1.

Skelliher is tight. You have to draw people in by giving them a taste of what the main card might be like.

I didn't know the Henderson Mousassi fight was on this card until just a minute ago. What an awesome day to have off with the house to myself.

Question for who knows, especially fellow Europeans:

Does this card start at GMT 21:00 or 22:00 ? I'm in Romania and having a bit of a confusion

The fight pass prelims start at 4 PM ET, which would be 9 PM GMT

The Prelims (on Fox Sports 1 here in the US, don't know what channel or if they're online in Romania) start at 5 PM ET, which is 10 PM GMT

The main card (Fox in the US) starts at 8 PM ET, which is 1 AM GMT.  

Makes for a pretty late night for those in Europe.

I've got a $10 super underdog parlay going on Rumble, Hendo and Bader. If all three win it's a $10 risk for a $465 reward.

@thiago, it has nothing to do with the country, it's all to do with the channel ... so far Eurocards have either been on FS1 or fight pass ... if they do a English or Irish card that's on FOX you can bet your granny's nickers they'll do exactly the same ... with the UFC it's never about the people these days, only the $$$.
