I already thought Tony Kelley would win, so seeing Alqaisi look rough on the scale is good for me.

The first fight starts at 2pm PT / 5pm ET, even though the UFC still shows 3pm on their website.

The commentators are biased as fuck.
Almost seems like they're members of Tagir's team.

Tagir/Silva was the best 1st fight on a UFC card I've seen in awhile.
Usually it's one-sided, or boring.

Emmers adjusted vs Giga by wrestling more. Morales should do the same.
Morales not living up to his highlight reel. Lol.
The chin on Morales. Wow.
Oh now Morales wants a fist fight.

Giga 2-1 with 2 clear rounds, imo.
He came out with a different strategy and it paid off.

Ugh... Gross.. that elbow. I didn't quite expect Kelley vs Alqasi to be a grappling match.
How would you score that first round? 10 - 9 Kelley?
Kelley gassing up a bit.

Alqaisi should win as the underdog vs some hyped up prospect fresh from the Contender Series.
Impa vs Buckley should be very interesting. Impa has been training with Maki Pitolo. Let's see if Impa let's his hands go like Maki. We know Buckley will.

Poor performance by Tony Kelley. I didn't realize he'd have that hard of a time keeping the alien dude off of him.
Kelley won, but it's a terrible DraftKings score.
