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!

**** me! Pesta had an easy mount when he was in Lewis' whatever he calls a half guard ... instead he falls into stupid traps. He should finish this dude easily the minute he gets him down.

how the **** do you score that round.
Pesta was winning the round the first four minutes, but was lewis four times more dominant in the last minute? I think he might have been... 10-10?

Lewis probably has the worst fight IQ but being in a division where hardly anyone has cardio his punching power gets him out of a lot of trouble

Pesta was doing good with the takedowns, but he didn't do enough standing up to weaken Lewis and didn't do much with his takedowns.  I hope he doesn't get cut, but he needs to make some rapid improvement if he wants to stay in the UFC.
