But wait, that's not all... you also get all the preliminary card fights streaming at Facebook.com/UFC beginning at 5:30pm eastern time. Come on down to Tapology and discuss the fights.

Your prediction results and leaderboard ranking will automatically show up in any posts made here. If you want to embed your full listing of picks you can do that also.   The top of the leaderboard will be available in the right column on this thread.

Edwards has the first 2 rounds. Some of those punches looked like they were to back of the head but the ref let it go.

Gotta love Joe and Goldie, they are great together and seem like they genuinely get along/respect each other. Think about it, we could have Mauro instead...EW.

Inexperience from Lopez he had a clean opportunity to finish and wasn't able to. Justin Edwards still fades as fights go on and unless he fixes that conditioning or pacing problem he won't continue to be successful.
