Particularly the live card on FX, sans the Miller/Dalloway match which I have a feeling might be a lay and pray victory for Dalloway. Hardy/Ludwig should be fun. Also, even though I didn't mention it in the post, it's interesting that Varner's getting another shot in the UFC. Not many people talking about that, which is surprising considering he was a former champ in WEC and how quickly he plummeted before they axed him after the merger and his loss to Diaz.

These holes can be capitalized by Nelson's KO power (as Schaub and Struve felt). Furthermore, Herman slows down from 2nd round. Nelson can absorb early punishment and take him down later. I agree that Miocic-Del Rosario will be the most interesting, attractive, and hard-to-pick bout on the main card. About Struve-Johnson, "Big" Lavar will have 3-4 minutes to knock the Dutch out. After this point, I think that Struve will submit him. Ah! I'm looking forward to the undercard hahahahaha I think that Herman hits hard but he has some big holes when trading punches.
