Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 1164th

The fighters are weighed in and although we lost two bouts in the days leading up, we're set for what is easily the best card of the year so far on paper. 

Let's hope it lives up to it.

Prelims kick off around 6pm ET on UFC Fight Pass before switching to FX (NOT FS1) at 8pm. The PPV main card, as always, hits at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

That may be a DQ. Unfortunate end to a great fight... if it ends.

******* ******** ... that wasn't an on the way, inbetween, heat of the moment thing, that was a dude on his hands and knees for a good 1-2 seconds before getting kneed to the head.

Just because one ref ****** up doesn't mean you have to **** up in the opposite direction to balance it out.

Clearest DQ I've ever seen.
