Predictions: 2 of 2 Winners, 1 Perfect, 125 Points   |   Tied for 310th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set to go for the marquee event of the weekend. 

Not the greatest card, but it's something to hold us over for next weekend. 

Seeing reports that the Spike.com prelims may not begin until 8pm ET, but will be monitoring live. Either way, we're in for a LOT of postlims. 

Main card kicks off at 9pm ET on Spike TV, as per usual.

Herzog let the Picoloti fight go a lot more. Good showing from Thomson and from Villaseca as well. Villaseca was planning to drop to 145 before this fight. So he should go down to 145.

Saw the last two fights on the card. Karakhanyan/Weichel was disappointing, Karakhanyan spent the whole fight getting outpointed on the feet and occasionally taunting while never once trying for any sort of takedown or sub that I recall. Thomson/Villaseca was fun, Villaseca didn't look too bad considering he's never fought any really good competition before and Thomson was doing a lot of cool stuff.

@PilloryChoke Georgi did try one takedown in the first, but couldn´t get it. So since he is no takedown artist, that shut down his whole sub game, which is very dangerous, and left him in a striking battle, which was what Weichel was looking for, in which the most technical striker won the striking therefore the fight. The smarter and most well rounded fighter won the fight. I can´t really blame Weichel for the fight not being the most exciting since he was controlling the fight smartly fromn start to finish, was coming from a KO loss, and possibly is getting a title shot with the win.Villaseca looked decent going from south american regional competition to a top 10/ top 15 fighter in the world, I mean that could be one the biggest step ups in competition in mma.

Yeah, Weichel did everything right, I was just hoping for a better fight. Hopefully Weichel/Straus will deliver that. Maybe Georgi needs to develop his wrestling more, his striking doesn't seem good enough for him to just hope it goes to the ground some way.

Saw McKee Jr's finish too. Pretty impressive the way he just grabbed a guy coming at him when he had his back to the cage and killed him with a knee. McKee Sr must have ****ed all his fight finishing capabilities into his wife that night.
