Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 590 Points   |   Tied for 243rd

The fourth and final UFC event of the past seven days is set to go down Saturday morning in Glasgow, Scotland. 

This is a pretty solid card that reminds me a lot of the best Cage Warriors offerings from a few years ago. 

Prelims kick off on UFC Fight Pass at 10am ET before switching over to FS1 at 11am for the rest of the card. 

Enjoy!

Euro cards are usually very solid top to bottom. I personally love them.

Lot of close odds, I have a bad feeling about my picks on this as well.

Odd event in that almost all of the weight classes are getting at least 1 fight excpet women's BW and the only division with more than 1 is LW with 4.

Why does Bisping have to act like he does at the weigh ins every single time? Can't he just do a face off without trying to fight right there...his gimmick is worn out

Went back and forth on the main event really close match up, but being in the UK i don't see Bisping losing

The UFC is taking a page from BAMMA's book and posting the fight finishes to their Facebook page immediately after the fight.  I like it.
