Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 475 Points   |   Tied for 576th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set to go after a rocky start.

Lineker and Gastelum badly missed weight (4 lbs and 9 lbs, respectively), BUT those fights are A GO!!! Both Lineker and Gastelum were fined 30% of their purses, which will be given to their opponents.

Prelims are set for UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET, followed by the televised prelims on FS1 at 8pm and then the PPV main card at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

Damn, there are a lot of Brazilians there, probably because it's 50% Brazilian fighters tonight.

I think the "brazilian crowd" that we're hearing is gonna die down.

Americans don't really show up til the main card. Brazilian fans are there the moment they open the doors.

Pay attention to the prelims next time theres a fight in Brazil.

This UFC rewards commercial is very non-UFC style of advertising.  I kind of like it... it's more normal and less FACE THE PAIN.
