The fighters are weighed in and only Alexa Grasso missed the mark (by 3 lbs.)

UFC Mexico City kicks off Saturday night at 7pm ET on UFC Fight Pass before switching to FS1 at 8pm for the rest of the night. 

Short on name value, but some quality match-making on display.

What a finish by Morales.  I am super stoked about him.  He looks like he has the possibility to be a real star at Flyweight.

This should go either way. 2 very hot prospects. I went with Sanchez but I'm not confident. These 2 have the makings of a close decision.

I'm not watching the FP prelims though. I'll be tuning in to the FS1 prelims and Main Card due to my schedule.

That was a tight choke. Good showing for Morrales.

Once I saw Sanchez with both palms on the mat with Morales on his neck I figured it was about it.Great performance by Morales but how did he have no sprawl coming from Alpha Male?I know he was against the cage but it was still ****** tdd.I have to see more of that kid.

Well let's see if i can bounce back. I ended up going Jose Quinones. But I'll be the first to say i didn't agree with the Real odds on this fight. Quinones over -200. I just don't see the reasoning behind it. Figured closer to an even line. But what do i know?

Vazio, they probably should've started the FP prelims at 7:15. But they usually give 30 mins between fights. So 2 1st Round finishes you knew you'd have to wait. It just comes with the territory.

Rivas looks winded, but that is to be expected from a man fighting after a 1 1/2 year layoff.

Decent win for Quinonez.  He put on a solid performance.  However, it is great to see Rivas back in the Octagon again at all, considering what he went through with his fight against cancer.
