The fighters are weighed in and we've got the rare event with no misses. Well, kind of; TJ Waldburger fainted while cutting weight a few hours ago, so that fight is scrapped. 

Otherwise, we've got one prelim on UFC Fight Pass at 530pm ET, followed by televised prelims on FS1 at 6pm and the main card on the same channel at 8pm. 

Enjoy!

PS. All you foos picking Bigfoot are cray. Money to be made on Mir in this one.

Saenz looked great. The dude has been quietly winning but maybe now people will take notice.

Got Khabilov in the next one, so he and his entire family will probably be killed by assassins tonight.

Khabilov is the 2nd biggest favorite and the one big favorite I actually thought about picking against...so if he loses I won't be super surprised.

I'm sort of pissed Jorge won, now.  I vote that we have a pink fist for just such ALL GREY cards.

Is it just impossible to teach Alcantara any kind of TDD? Doesn't matter how great you are at Muay Thai and BJJ, if you keep getting TDed

No surprise that the second place guy on the leaderboard is named "Upset" *sigh*
