Predictions: 11 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 675 Points | Tied for 161st
By my (rough) estimates, this should grant Lamas in the neighborhood of an extra $15k for taking the fight, win or lose, and the 30% fine marks a step in a new direction for the promotion, which will now be increasing fines depending on the severity of the miss.
Anyway, this is a great card overall. The action kicks off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching to FS1 for the rest of the night at 8pm.
Enjoy!

After thoughts on the main event...
-RDA doesn't seem the same, didn't have Cordeiro which hurt him, but Ferguson is damn good.
-It was a great win for Tony, I picked him, but I think Khabib is still ahead of him with a win at 205.

Even with a win over Johnson (which some may use to put Khabib over Ferguson with via MMATh), you still have to dig too far in the past (Khabib's win over RDA, which has been nullified, and Ferguson's loss to MJ) to make the case for Khabib over Tony.
RDA losing the belt to Eddie pretty much put Khabib back a spot or two. Khabib beat #5 ranked RDA more than 2 years ago and that's his only top guy in the streak. Ferguson beat #2 ranked RDA to top a 9 fight winning streak and takes the cake, imo.
Not that I'd mind Khabib getting the shot, I like him better, I just think there's a VERY clear #1 contender as of tonight.

Avila or Lobov either one...
Predictions: 0 of 0 Winners, 0 Perfect, 0 Points | Tied for 1390th
Avila has one of the very best boxing coaches in MMA and he fights like this? Thats not even pro level fighting what hes doing.. Hes either incredibly incredibly "dense" with absolutely NO fight IQ (like Artem) or hes just soo stubborn that its a wonder that they have not walked away from him in his own camp.
Now the kid Avila fought is better than he or Artem either one has faced...hes a good young fighter... but still there is absolutely NO excuse for Avila's performance.. They need to cut this kid quick.. he just doesnt have it...
