Predictions: 10 of 13 Winners, 6 Perfect, 675 Points   |   10th Place

The fighters are weighed in and we're set for a solid night of fights on Big FOX.

Will Weidman break the streak? Will Gastelum become an insta-contender at 185 lbs? Will Elkins continue to defeat men he has no right to beat?

This Burgos kid is definitely one hell of a prospect. I can't wait to see who they give him next.

Awesome fight.I knew it was going to be fireworks and figured it would end before the time limit but it was actually nice to see 15 minutes of that.

30-26 Burgos.  Great win for Burgos that showcased he is a real threat in that division.  I could easily see him winning a title in the next couple of years if he keeps this up.

Oh man.... mid-tier heavyweights. Let's hope it ends in the first couple of minutes, or this could get ugly.

I have watched Albini a few times before but that was by far the most impressive fight I have seen him in.The ending sequence was beautiful for a giant guy.

Did not see that coming. Chito Vera with another nice upset.  Guy is building a solid name for himself.

Didn't see that coming.I never really thought Kelleher was that great (but still good) cause I have been watching him forever but he's improved so much it's crazy and he looked good tonight,but he got caught.Kudos to Vera.

A big surprise....at least for me.

Great move from Vera to win the fight.

Congratulations.

Ryan Spann looks so different at 205.His frame is fine for it but this is a guy that fought at 170 and imo he's probably best at 185.I have seen a lot of the Tuesday Night Fights guys fighting a weight above but whatever.Big fan of Spann he's so scrappy and fun to watch.Hopefully he pulls it off on Tuesday and gets a contract and 205 could use some new blood but I think he'd go back to MW.He gave Robert Drysdale all kinds of issues before the choke but at the same time Drysdale has looked like trash cardio wise.Really fun TNF's next week though on paper,i'm digging the show.
