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!

Presser might be delayed due to Rory and Robbie both being in the hospital? May want to wait until they get checked out and can be a part of it. All I can think of for the reasoning behind the delay. Unless the Irish are rioting.

McGregor didn't deserve a POTN over Gunny or Stephens IMO.

Stephens should have gotten it.

Anyone think this had the number 1 and 2 fights of the year? Lawler -Macdonald and Stephens-Bermudez respectively.

The post fight bonuses are like all star selections. People will complain about who did or didn't get them but the next day nobody remembers who got them.

One thing's for sure, I've written this more or less everywhere I can think of and here I'm saying it on Tap too, I think Dana needs to stop slave-driving Conor before fights if he wants to keep milking that money-cow.

Seriously, this is the second fight in a row where Conor has reached fight night on his final strip of energy. It's ******* dangerous. No way Conor was peaking in both the Siver nor the Mendes fights. It was apparent. He looked different in fight week interviews and weigh ins for both those fights and tonight he looked slower than ever and that was before Chad even touched him.

Guys, don't worry, Rory is fine ... he's been rehydrated and here's a picture of him sipping some fine wine in the hospital lobby
