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!

Also, good job to Rogan for being a **** during Jose's post-fight interview. God I hope he leaves in April.

Say what you will about McGregor, but he's great for the sport. He's respectful after fights, and he promotes the **** out of them before.

C-Mac is only going to make many more people money. Everyone needs to realize how much he's helping them and they need to take a lesson in business. He now has more leverage than any fighter in UFC history and he's going to reep the benefits ($$$) of it! It won't always work out for some fighters, but he's the A+ model of what will happen if it does ;)

Yeah, UFC loves him more than ever. And you can't take anything away from him now. Unlike Chael, he proved he's a great fighter. But just because he humbled down in his post-fight speech, it doesn't make his persona any less unbearable. The over exposition by the media doesn't help either, publishing every goddamn thing he has to say about anything. 

Now we have to brace ourselves to Rogan and Dana saying he is the (new) greatest thing in sports ever. It may be good for business, but I don't know if my mind can take it.

McGregor is definitely the best thing for the sport as whole and many fighters are going to benefit from being across the cage from him. He brings much needed attention to the FW division which has a lot of good fighters who have been mostly ignored by the general public up until he came on the scene. Those who hate him will cheer for his opponent and those who love him will hope he keeps Knocking people out. Either way it means a lot of money and attention for the sport.
