Predictions: 4 of 10 Winners, 2 Perfect, 290 Points   |   Tied for 496th

We lost Brooks vs. Lentz due to usual weight cutting BS, but the rest of UFC 216 is intact (though Kevin Lee tried his best to ruin the main event by missing on his first attempt.)

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 630pm ET before switching to FS1 at 8pm. The PPV main card starts at 10pm. 

Enjoy!

Lewis had to back out due to his spine acting up.

Picked Bibulatov and i thought he'd be a potential Title Contender. But Moraga and Borg are my favorite Flys so I'm not upset about it but i thought Bibulatov would be too much. He should bounce back. Not like Moraga is a bad fighter. He's fought the cream of the crop.

I was a big believer in Borg when he debuted. Was pretty shocked by his loss to Scoggins and haven't cared for his lack of professionalism in a few bouts since. Not expecting much. Will be pleasantly surprised if he makes a fight of it.

I know but that last time he was knocked out just made no sense. Short shots on the ground and he was out cold I almost have the idea that flicking the guy on the chin would knock him out

Beltran is too afraid to be hit..keeps him from landing some solid combos.

Poor quality fight this should have been fight pass prelims. IMO neither belong in the ufc 29-28 scnell. Hard to believe they let people like horiguchi go while these 2 are signed up

Wasn't Botelho at 35% on here not long ago? She finished at 44%. Wonder what caused the late surge.

@terrencetj You do pick some good upsets...Harris has all the skills to get the job done,but it really is a punchers chance,he just has a better punchers chance than most people we say only have a punchers chance.

I've been wanting to see how Botelho fights. This should be fun.
