Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 400 Points | Tied for 307th

Keep forgetting about these early weigh-ins.

We lost the McCall-Scoggins bout yesterday when Scoggins stopped cutting weight, but we've got the rest of the card set.

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 7pm ET before switching over to FS2 (hate this SD ********) at 8pm. The PPV main card, as always, starts at 10pm.

Enjoy!

Sadly no casuals know of this card, unfortunately being sandwiched in between 200 and 202

Robbie said knock you out!

If either DJ/Reis or McCall/Scoggins could have stayed on this card it would have been a nice PPV even though people have been ****ting on it because its not UFC 200 or 202, but I still like a lot of the match-ups on this card.

Why the **** did they bump up Benoit-Serrano to the PPV? They should have just bumped Krylov-Herman up and let Masvidal-Pearson headline the prelims.

I think it's to get more people to watch the prelims cause it's on the unknown specimen called fox sports 2

@Follow The Money I couldn't agree more. Benoit/Serrano on a PPV Main Card looks very out of place. I wouldn't have a problem with this fight being on a Fight Night Main Card but that's about it. I also like the Rivera/Perez fight but I don't really think this one belongs on a PPV either. With this lineup given I'd probably put the longtime vets on the Main Card Masvidal/Pearson. I'll try and cut some slack though considering 201 already lost Mighty Mouse and McCall/Scoggins. I'm not expecting to see this card do very big (PPV) numbers at all.

Ross-Masvidal is on free tv on purpose. Theyvwant to draw people in with that fight.

Always excited to see Robbie Lawler throw down. The card looks okay but got further diluted with the McCall-Scoggins fight being called off.

Considering a Lawler/Masvidal/Reis parlay.

@yossgold, yeah I get the feeling. It's not as bad as you where I am but still, 1am... damn, I hope there aren't any snoozefests on the end of the card or I might actually fall asleep. Though considering who's fighting on the last three, I think I'm safe there.

Wish my luck guys, I'm going to the fights tonight. Lawler wins by TKO!

This is my first ever UFC PPV that I will see live. Hope its a good card and Lawler puts on another fight of the year candidate.

Cheers,
