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!

Good win for Dariush. I picked Magomedov, but I think Beneil won that fight 29-28. I'd love to see Dariush vs. Poirier next.

Bravo seems like an exciting addition. Lots of fun fights for him when he goes to 145 in his next fight.

Lamas about to go to work! After this, Do Bronx should be forced to go to LW. Karma's about to bite him in the ass, though.

War Lamas! He's a boss for taking this fight given that Oliveira weighed in as a lightweight for a featherweight bout.
