Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 505 Points   |   Tied for 174th

The fighters are weighed in (2 bad misses by Munhoz and Prezerez) and we're set for Saturday night. 

Some quality match-ups here, even if it continues the 2018 trend of weird/underwhelming main events. 


(Update: Dodson hasn't accepted the fight with Munhoz. Co-main is off.)

Moraes might have won the first, but the second was clearly Means. 19-19, imo. but the moment is in favour of Means.

Means should have taken rd 2 but I wouldn't trust the judges.

Rd 3 is absolutely Means but don't be surprised if Judges screw him over.
