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.

I remember thinking Josh Shockley looked like a pretty decent fighter in Bellator.

He didn't have the dreadlocks then. He's like a reverse Rastafarian Samson.

19-19 decent fight. Looks like Griffin vs Bonnar from TUF compared to the last fight though.
