What a wack-ass day for weigh-ins. 

Not only did DC miss weight by 1.2 lbs on his first attempt, but his second attempt (less than three minutes later) saw him shed that weight in record time. But ... our title fight's on ... so, cool?

Also, main card debutant Pearl Gonzalez was removed from the card after weighing in because the NYSAC decided she shouldn't be allowed to compete with breast implants. They reversed that decision hours later, accomplishing nothing but humiliating Gonzalez in the process. 

Ridiculous, but we're a go for Saturday night with the rare UFC event of 2017 with NO cancellations. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 6pm ET before shifting to FS1 at 8pm. The PPV main card kicks off at 10pm.

I've been high on Bibulatov. Had him ranked #9 WW before his ufc debut. 

Maybe Moreno or Formiga. He's gonna be a tough out for anyone minus MM.

There wasn't a whole lot of defining moments in this fight. They were both active but all that didn't amount to much  really effective offense.

What got her that W? Absolutely useless kicks? Because that's all she did beside those failed takedowns. I don't get it.

0-2 ufc, Irene might be headed back to invicta soon, which would be a shame, shes been competitive and entertaining.

Green's striking/power is really coming around,it's taken long enough,but he's now looking quite dangerous.

Rogan's commentary doesn't match what I'm seeing. 

I think Green has largely controlled this fight.
