Jones or no Jones, we're in for a fantastic night of fights on Saturday when UFC 187 kicks off from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

UFC Fight Pass prelims begin at 630pm ET, followed by FS1 prelims at 8pm and the PPV main card at 10pm. 

I'm going to be on a flight during the bulk of this noise, so I shall live vicariously through your Forum chatter when I debark at Logan Airport. 

Keep it lively, keep it fun and enjoy!

Good running knee pick from benavidez. Akin to the one frequently used by Dustin Schlatter as of late with the exception Joe-B doesn't hold onto the collar tie while still picking the knee. Also can be done from an underhook which is much more common, which you see more from a guy like Frankie Edgar.

If Rumble takes the belt tonight I wouldn't care if I didn't get another pick right for the rest of the card.

Looks like Browne's using the same gameplan he did vs. Overeem ... get ****** up in the first round and play it from there

Why did Browne move to a camp were the only person that consistently wins is Rousey? And with no good heavyweight training partners either.
