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!

Nothing Vitor could do with a guy Weidman's size in full-mount.

Funny that Vitor did more to him in a minute than "the GOAT" Anderson did in two fights.

Damn Vitor looked bad on the ground, like it took Weidman like 10-20 seconds to mount him.
