Predictions: 5 of 11 Winners, 4 Perfect, 350 Points | Tied for 675th

It's official! The weigh-ins are done and Cain is returning for the first time since 2013 to defend that strap against a surging Fabricio Werdum. This is the first opponent not named JDS or Bigfoot Silva that Cain has fought since 2010, and I can't wait.

The co-main features a spectacular lightweight showdown between the ex-Strikeforce champ and the ex-Bellator champ that is just as deserving of championship rounds as the main event.

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 7pm ET before switching over to FX at 8pm. The main card, as always, hits PPV at 10pm.

Enjoy, mis amigos!

**** it, 29-28 Alvarez. Those last two rounds were extremely lackluster. Either guy could win it and I wouldn't be upset. Eddie tried more to take it in the second and third.

I don't get the boos. With the expectations we had, there was no way that lived up to it. However, I thought it was a good fight for what it was. Hespect to both.

Anyone's fight. R1 was Gil's, R2 was Eddie's, R3 is a toss-up.

Pretty big letdown of a fight. Both guys were hesitant, and Gil gassed after the first round. Yair and Rosa looking solid for FOTN unless Cain decides to let Werdum live long enough for FOTN eligibility.

Alvarez's wrestling was really good that fight. I loved his level changes and feints to get Gilbert off kilter.

Alvarez got the win he deserved (even if I didn't pick him). Honestly, both guys looked bad. Neither guy had very good pace and both guys looked like bad versions of themselves. Feel like neither is a top LW any more.
