Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 5 Perfect, 575 Points   |   Tied for 608th

The fighters (all but one) have weighed in and we're set for what is still a quality night of fights in Houston, Texas. Every bout, from the first prelim straight through to the main event has some sort of storyline or interesting dynamic worth paying attention to. I think the match-ups favor high-paced affairs for quite a few of them as well. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching over to FS1 at 8pm. As always, the PPV main card touches down at 10pm. 

This is what we do and why we do it, baby!

WE RollinnnNNnnnNNNNNN ... YEAH!

If you only heard audio to this, you wouldn't even know Rodriguez was fighting someone. Because the commentary hasn't mentioned Hooker.

Rodriguez is one of the very rare few that along with the technique also has a natural feel for a fight ... he's very good everywhere and improvises beautifully ...

Joe Rogan's right, Yair is probably content hanging on the ground because he knows if it stays like this, he gets a 29-28 decision.

Rodriguez did far more damage from the bottom than Hooker did from the top. Easily could be 30-27 at worst 29-28 for Rodriguez.

Even with that lame 2 minutes in Round 3 I am going to guess this will be the underrated fight on this card - hidden with all of those finishes. Yair as always was entertaining and for a majority of the fight I would say that Hooker was the one pushing the pace.

He broke his foot in the first and maintained really fluid movement through the entire fight? This man isn't human.

Dana White ‏@danawhite 3m3 minutes ago

The word here is that Yair's foot is broken.



Damn.  Rodriguez is a ******* boss fighting with a broken foot.
