The fighters are weighed in and everyone's set to go for one of the bigger Fight Nights in some time.

If Goldie dreams that McGregor is the Irish Muhammad Ali, he better wake up and apologize.

20-18 Case, Perez is going to need a finish but he hasn't showed he has a way to get it against Case.

It's disgusting to me how Rogan is overstating what Case is doing. He isn't passing guard or even trying to advance position, the striking exchanges are much more even than he's presenting them to be, and Perez is the only one initiating any subs or scrambles. Case is being VERY cautious. But I do think Perez needs a finish for a wn or a 10-8 for a draw.
