Welp. We've lost what was widely considered to be the best fight on the card, severely dampening excitement for the event. 

But the show must go on. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 7pm ET before switching to FS1 at 8pm. 

The PPV main card kicks off at 10pm.

Dan Kelly is awesome! Great chin, pushes the pace constantly, sneakily gold hands and the best hips in MMA. Oh, if we're just a tad younger!

He did it again...

Kelly's ******* awesome. I remember how terrible his fight against Walsh was. He's come a long way from that.

Vannata probably took that first round, but it feels like the momentum is shifting in favor of Teymur.

All 3 judges going 30-27 is surprising, but I agree with the decision.

Don't agree with that 30-27.  Wonder how it would be scored under the new rules.
