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!

Rough one.  If this fight happened 5 years ago, it would have been more action packed.  Still, both guys gave the best that they could and I hope Arlovski can make some critical changes to his game so he won't tire out after 2 rounds.

Legit question, what round do you think Mir won? I think they were all close but didn't see anything clear for Mir. The 2nd he took AA down, landed some body shots, waited to be stood up and then ate some decent shots from AA for the rest of the round. He could certainly have taken it but didn't seem clear cut.

Since for some reason Fedor got into this discussion: Fedor's decline was not a physical one, at least not entirely. He simply stopped fighting well.

Lol at Dodson talking ****. He won ONE round. And got the absolute **** kicked out of him in round five. He thinks he won the first three rounds? LOLWUT? Then you have them trying to sell the fight as if the first was close, yet, if you go watch the first, come rounds four and five Rogan and Goldberg are talking about how Dodson "needs to make something happen." 

And he claims Johnson is the most worthless fighter in the UFC? WHAT IS THIS NINJA TALKING ABOUT?! Demetrious Johnson is the best martial artist on the planet right now. Get this man some pills, because his recent pregnancy is ******* with him mind. Put him out of his misery and give him some purple rain injected viagranide.

@MikeLovesTacos XD I gave Dodson rounds two and three, but yes, DJ demolished him during the fifth.

EDIT: I don't think Dodson wins, but I will root for him.
