What time does UFC 205 start? Fight card, full line up and bout order for 'McGregor vs Alvarez' tonight

UFC 205 is just hours away, with the mixed martial arts (MMA) action scheduled to begin inside Madison Square Garden in New York, N.Y., later this evening (Sat., Nov. 12, 2016). The first fight will begin at 7 p.m. ET on UFC's subscription-only online network, Fight Pass. That's the start of an incredible evening for combat sports fans, unlike any other ever assembled. Indeed, UFC 205 is stacked from bottom-to-top, culminating with, of course, the biggest star in the sport, Featherweight champion Conor McGregor, who will challenge Lightweight roost ruler, Eddie Alvarez, for the 155-pound world title. If victorious, McGregor will become the first-ever UFC champion to hold two titles in two different divisions at the same time.
