In a change from the usual format for big FOX cards, the televised prelims are only two hours as opposed to the usual three. Given the amount of fights on the card hasn’t changed, that means Fight Pass is picking up the slack. With one less hour of the usual UFC television pacing, I’m as happy as can be with that pronouncement. I can only listen to Reba McEntire sing about KFC BBQ so many times. On that note, can we bring back Norm MacDonald as the Colonel?
As for the actual Fight Pass card, the biggest highlight on paper is the lightweight contest between Gilbert Burns and Olivier Aubin-Mercier.
