Predictions: 9 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 436th

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for a PPV that's been flying under the radar with the influx of UFC 214 announcements and the loom specter that is McGregor-Mayweather. 

Still, UFC 213 is a solid card with two compelling title fights and a marquee Heavyweight clash. I'm looking forward to it. 

Prelims kick off Saturday night on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching over to FS1 at 8pm. 

The PPV main card kicks off at 10pm. Enjoy!

I was a bit let down on Blaydes performance. He won 30-27 but that wasn't a blowout by any means.

Love him or hate him, Reem is a monster! But I want to see him just go mental on his K1, I honestly think he could lite up just about anyone with his striking, absolute war lord!

Blame MMA scoring for that one. Werdum wins it under the new rules and Pride rules. I had it 28-28, personally.

**** that decision. Werdum got 1 and 3, with the third more than likely being a 10-8.

There is no way that isn't a 10-8 if the others were 10-9 overeem. Werdum could have finished him if he kept it standing. pretty sure there's a lot of regret from werdum now. He could have easily finished that fight
