Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 365 Points   |   Tied for 773rd

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for what may be the best card of the year (on paper). 

Let's hope it delivers. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 7pm ET before moving over to FS1 at 8pm. The PPV main card, as always, starts at 10pm. 

Let's get this topic as (respectably) rowdy as the Irish fans in attendance will be Saturday night!

I find it funny that the UFC has accumulated all these big name sponsors like Reebok, Fram, Monster Energy, Budweiser, Harley Davidson, etc. and yet they still hold onto Toyo Tires as a cage sponsor.
