Predictions: 11 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 675 Points   |   Tied for 161st

The fighters are weighed in and two missed the mark. Felipe Arantes missed weight by 2 lbs, forefeiting 20% of his purse to Perez, while Charles Oliveira tied a UFC record for his fifth career miss (he now shares the distinction with John Lineker.) He was off by a whopping 9 lbs and will forfeit 30% of his purse to Lamas, who agreed to what is now essentially a lightweight fight he weighed in at 146 for. 

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!

Damn.  A unanimous for Alvey. Wasn't expecting that.  Still, solid win for Smiling Sam.

Awesome action in round 1.  Hard round to score.  Leaning towards Andrade.

I think he stopped it because the amount of time Briones was dropped throughout the fight

I have my dog pick coming up next. I'd pick Soto on a full camp, but I question his cardio fighting at this high of an altitude on a short camp.
