Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 450th

The fighters are weighed in and even Riggs hit the mark on his second try, so we're good to go for a somewhat underrated UFC card on PPV. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 7pm ET before transitioning to FS1 at 8pm. As always, the PPV main card touches down at 10pm. 

Greg has you covered for the main card and special thanks to Yoss for covering the prelims while I attend a Canadian wedding!

This is looking to be a good night for fights and a bad one for picks.

I like Felder alot, that was upsetting I think were gonna start seein people win and challenge for titles in that division who have losses early in their career alot though. Cuz its so competitive. Just like Rda

I'm surprised the UFC hasn't struck a deal with Microsoft/Xbox yet.  They have advertised a lot of their exclusive titles in the past, with the most recent being Halo 5 for this card.  One of their champs is/was sponsored by Xbox.  Hell, they even develop and optimize all their apps and content services for Xbox products first.  Why wouldn't the UFC push to get a deal with Microsoft?

DJ would be pretty happy about if UFC and Microsoft struck a deal since he's said his Microsoft sponsorship is up in air now with the Reebok deal. Sucks

I seriously think Joanna could beat both of these girls at the same time.

VZ isn't nearly good enough to warrant such hype, but she is 10x the athlete Chambers is.

@DontBeScaredHomie  Joanna would knock out both VanZant and Chambers with First Round Head Kick KO's.
