O'Malley vs Merab main event for this card.

Merab and Sean were just together on his Snapchat story, Sean asked how Merab is enjoying champion life than said he better enjoy it because "93 more..." Than stopped himself because the cameras.

Betting they will announce it during the broadcast tomorrow, since Sean and Merab were doing Media day and taking pictures for the fight today at the UFC headquarters.

Don't understand the rematch, especially as Sean seemed to of skipped the gauntlet of the 135lb division on his come-up. He had some super close fights in that top 10 and I would've loved to of seen him fight someone else in the meantime.

Uhhhh, I don't know if the website is just bugging out or what, but it says Mario Bautista vs Chito Vera is on this card, but I can't see it here, or make predictions for it.
EDIT: It's there now.

I honestly think bruno silvas pretty underrated, I just don't see him breaking through a tough prospect at 35. especially with how he's looked recently
