Forget about Saturday morning cartoons, that was so three decades ago. Now, at least today, Saturday mornings are all about UFC fights.
The action starts bright and early in Virginia, with the preliminary card kicking off at 11AM ET/8AM PT.
Chad Mendes (pictured) remains a heavy 4.5-1 odds-on favorite to dispose of fellow former featherweight top contender Ricardo Lamas in the show’s featured tango. Lamas, meanwhile, checks in as more than a 3-1 underdog to beat “Money.”
Patriot Center in Fairfax hosts the festivities.
