Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 205th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for what should be a fun night in Curitiba. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching over to FS1 at 8pm. The PPV main card starts at 10pm. 

Have to be honest, Anderson's withdrawal has dampened my enthusiasm for this one and the co-main does nothing for me. But Maia-Brown should be good and the main event is intriguing. 

Hopefully we get some good fights.

Anderson should lose every decision in his career on account of his nickname. It's punishable for a point-per-round at least ...

Has Cyborg had plastic surgery? She looks like that lady who tried to become a cat.

I never thought Cyborg would make it to the UFC.  This is a rather amazing moment in MMA history if you think about it.
