The regular prelims will air on ESPN, top of the hour. Bantamweight Champ TJ Dillashaw moves down to 125 to take on Flyweight title holder Henry Cejudo in the main event.

In 1995, Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan declared, “Sometime in the next century the United States is going to have to address the question of apportionment in the Senate.” Perhaps that time has come. Today the voting power of a citizen in Wyoming, the smallest state in terms of population, is about 67 times that of a citizen in the largest state of California, and the disparities among the states are only increasing. The situation is untenable.
