Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 590 Points   |   Tied for 243rd

The fourth and final UFC event of the past seven days is set to go down Saturday morning in Glasgow, Scotland. 

This is a pretty solid card that reminds me a lot of the best Cage Warriors offerings from a few years ago. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 10am ET before switching over to FS1 at 11am for the rest of the card. 

Enjoy!

That was a breaking announcement of something everyone already knew

Dunham is a 15% dog? What?! I picked him by decision in confidence. Win or lose, that's shocking to me.

Yeah, I can see Pearson as a favorite but Dunham at 15% is a bit crazy. He is so inconsistent though, some nights he looks like a legit top tenner and then others he gets smoked.

Dunham is up 2 rounds. He better be careful.  Pearson is going to be dangerous at the start of the 3rd.

I didn't underrate Dunham's abilities but I did underrate his fight IQ.Pearson obviously needs a finish in the 3rd.
