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!

Colby has some good wrestling and top control but I think he will have serious problems with Alves' athleticism and power, especially early. I expect a Warrly finish or Colby snoozefest.

Santos' striking looked lethal! His jab was piercing Lee and landing every time, footwork was perfect, circled out of danger and landed beautifully when he saw the opening! As for the stoppage, every one of those punches was landing, he was going in and out of conciensness and Big John gave a ****load of time to try and stop getting punched in the face. Very good stoppage of you ask me.

If only Santos had started MMA a bit sooner, dude could have had a crazy career, he's so intelligent and technically sound.

@mikey, I think Colby tests what I believe to be a low gas tank on Warley. He's dangerous to start off with, but I believe he fades under the grind.
