The fighters are weighed in and we're set for UFC 197: McGregor vs. Dana Whi ... Oh, I mean, Jones vs. OSP!!!

Seriously, though. It should be a fun little card.

Enjoy!

Jones put a stamp on that round. He's up 4-0.

Four rounds in the bank for Jones.  OSP needs a miracle KO to win this.

@GreenHornet No, really. I didn't expect this fight to go to the 5th. I'm glad MM finished Cejudo early haha

The boos tonight have been very strange...that was a good fight, ***...Anyway, super impressed with OSP even though he didn't win any rounds on my scorecard. I had thought OSP was going to get subbed out in the 1st and he was kind of competitive against Jones which is more than most of his opponents can say. I'm glad OSP got his shot, too bad it was short notice.
