Fighters are weighed in and we're set for some Sunday AM MMA ... because the UFC don't give a Rotterdam about Mother's Day, apparently. 

Heh.

Anyways, prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 1030am ET followed by the rest of the business on FS1 at noon. 

Enjoy!

Yeah Guchi looked great, he landed some big shots on Seery who is as tough as nails. I though Guchi was going to find the finish a couple of times in that fight.

Much closer round but I'm afraid at least 2 of the 3 judges will still see it fo Emmett. I thought Tuck figured out his timing more and I would give a slight edge to Tuck for that round and let the 3rd decide it with Emmett holding a slight advantage in my mind forcing Tuck to win this round clearly or Emmett wins.

Commentary is Rogan level biased imo

And THAT'S why you should ALWAYS score a close 2nd round for the guy that lost a close 1st round. I sooooo hope the judges agree just so Florian and Anik will learn not to assume that their opinions are the same as the judges. But I wouldn't want to put money on the outcome. At least give Tuck a 10-8 3rd for a draw.

The way Tuck fought today I don't know if he would've beaten Hein. He looked uncomfortable striking until he realized his opponent only had one hand.

While I thought Tuck should've won, very impressive debut by Emmett and Tuck has only himself to blame for being so tentative.
