Predictions: 5 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 290 Points   |   Tied for 1249th

This one's flying somewhat under the radar relative to the mainstream crossover appeal of the last two UFC PPVs, but it's a hardcore fan's dream. 

Lawler-Condit, Arlovski-Miocic, Larkin-Tumenov ... Oh lawd. 

The prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching over to FS1 at 8pm. As always, the main card kicks off at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

Nice. Poirier fought most of that fight exactly how I was hoping he would and he got the underdog win. Duffy impressed me with his submission attempts from the bottom.

Conor McGregor's UFC run was criticized prior to the Mendes win. It continues to look better with each win his victims stack up. 

Granted, Poirier looks better at 155. More healthy, stronger and more durable. But I think the same could be said of a McGregor move to LW.

That triangle was solid at the end, but Poirier didn't look too panicked to me. Definitely wouldn't consider that a saved-by-the-bell moment.
