Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 465 Points   |   Tied for 712th

The fighters are weighed in and we had some manufactured drama go down at the weigh-ins for the main event. 

Prelims kick off at 615pm ET on UFC Fight Pass before switching to FS1 at 8pm. As always, the main card touches down on PPV at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

Have to say, I'm impressed with the seating arrangement for Melbourne Stadium.  It looks like there is good sight lines for this fight card.

@Griffy


Moontasri's shorts also had basically the same stain. I wonder if it's from the black paint on the fence or one of the logos. Or they are sharing shorts.

Good job by Kennedy to turn the momentum of that round around with ground work.  I would still give that round to Walsh by way of damage done in the stand up.

I'm 95% positive there is a bird in the arena. Anyone else see a yellow one flying around?

Edit: Nevermind I didn't realize it was an open roof arena; my bad.
