Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 565 Points   |   Tied for 21st with 2 others

Well fight fans, we are in for a fun Friday night of fights live from the land of the Rising Sun; as the UFC comes back to the Saitama Super Arena for the first time in two years with Yushin Okami making his UFC return against Ovince St. Preux.  Also, in the Co-Main we have a strawweight contender showdown between Jessica Andrade and Claudia Gadelha, as well as the UFC debut of former Glory Kickboxing Light Heavyweight Champion Gokhan Saki.

All the fighters have weighed in and only Mizuto Hirota has missed weight, although he missed it by 5 pounds (which caused him to get dropped from the card as a result).

The Fight Pass Prelims begin at 7:30 PM EST, with the rest of the card airing on FXX (NOT FS1) at 8:00 PM EST.

WE ROLLING, YEAH!

holy crap, FOTN for sure. this is what high level WMMA looks like (a stark contrast to Kondo-Jeon) and the best Andrade has ever looked. She looks possessed and just completely destroyed the #1 woman.

I guess I was happier to see that than to see Shogun get his face smashed again.

OSP doesn't even need the guy to latch a guillotine much, rename that choke to Von Preux.

Was cool to see Andrade win too, it's impressive to outdo the strongest woman in the division.

As a grappler,

Ovince did great job stop td ,get top position finish with unusual sub,absolutely amazing !!

Gomi needs to retire,he s a legend but his time s passed !,

Saki did good job too,he must focus grappling a lot and also he needs to inc condition!

Jussier de silva,he s great grappler,what a great double leg transition and finish with rnc,!

Anzai fought very well too,he combine striking with takedowns very well and keep pushing get dec victry!

Gomi has to stop. He looked out of his depth against Ken Flo 7 years ago, how has he lasted this long in the UFC!? Does he fight for free or something? I know he was great but he needs to stop for his health.

Yeah. It sucks to watch the decline on any fighters. It's especially hard to watch the fighters who were elite. Someone needs to step in when these fighters get to this point. They basically have to be told to stop. Otherwise they will keep fighting because it's just the way they're wired.

They needed him for a UFC Japan event.
