Editor's Note: This chat will begin upon the conclusion of the UFC 197 pre-fight press conference.

This is the Promotional Malpractice Live Chat.

UFC Fight Night 81 is just about everything we wanted it to be. The technical aspects of it haven't quite been unwrapped yet, but many other issues have arisen. Most notably, the 10-point must system controversy is back. There's also a question of what proper scoring should look like within that system. We'll address some of the issues raised and their differences today.

We'll also be following the UFC 197 pre-fight press conference in Las Vegas giving us an opportunity to provide immediate feedback. In attendance are Conor McGregor, Rafael dos Anjos, Holly Holm, Miesha Tate, Dana White and more. I suspect they'll be plenty of reactions to be had.

These topics as well as your questions and comments about all other matters are on the docket as well. See you at our special start time of 3 p.m. ET.

There's a lot going on, so join me today to discuss all of this and more. In terms of today's chat, anything is up for discussion, but I will lead with this and it all kicks off at 1 p.m. ET.

As is customary, I'll post the video window here as the event draws near and I'll answer any questions you may have if you post them in the comments section below. Be sure that you click the 'rec' button for those comments/questions you believe most deserve a response.
