"This week’s UFC card may not be all that great, but there’s certainly a whole lot of it. Former title contender Anthony Smith takes on Ryan Spann in the main event. Ion Cutelaba takes on Devin Clark in the co-main. Arman Tsarukyan and Joaquin Buckley otherwise make for notable high points out of the 30 fighters booked for 15 fights." – Zane Simon
