The fighters are weighed in, and this **** is actually happening!!! The whole main card stayed intact!

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

Here's hoping we get something to top or rival UFC 189. 

Enjoy!

I think Holloway 10-9 again. Very close fight. Holloway's takedown defense is on point and has really picked Jeremy's gameplan apart. He's tried for takedowns the entire fights but Holloway has denied him every time.

Holloway better watch himself. 1 minute left. Stephens will likely go for broke.

Stephens isn't too bad of a wrestler either and Holloway shutting him down. That TDD could help him immensely in this featherweight top 5. (Edgar, Mendes). Nonetheless, great fight. Close but 10-9 and 30-27 Holloway.

That's how you go out at the end of a fight you know you're losing. Swinging for the ******' cheap seats.
