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.

close fight, I had 29-28 Gibson, but could be the other way around, depending on how do you score the first.

no way this could end as 30-27, though

Can someone please start doing something about these rigged judges? Apparently the judges are thinking: "Don't know who to give this fight, but the audience know their ****" The brazilian can have the win.

Only thing that robbed Gibson was his own fight IQ, constantly blows fights he should and is winning by being an idiot.

@Legz meh... it wasn't a robbery at all. but people love to bash anything that happens in Brazil... MMAJunkie even gave it to Douglas, and Sherdog has a split in favor of Gibson...
