^10 bucks says it wouldn't get as much media as the Zimmerman case.


Jones Via black on black crime.

Jones vs Evans (guillotine, not sure which round)
MacDonald vs Mills
Schaub vs Rothwell
Torres vs McDonald
Hominick vs Yagin
Bocek vs Alessio

Prelims
Browne vs Griggs (KO/TKO, Griggs is a monster)
Brown vs Thompson (I'm on the hype train. striking styles that are unfamiliar in MMA give MMA guys a lot of trouble. This is why Machida went undefeated for so long. I can see this helping Wonderboy for a while)
Makdessi vs Njokuani (I think Makdessi is the better striker. I could be wrong, but I'm sure it's going to be a badass fight)
Danzig vs Escudero- (Danzig isn't as good a wrestler as Volkmann. I think Efrain will control this fight)
Wisniewski vs Clements
Brimage vs Blanco


My picks in bold.

This card is pretty stacked.

Wonderboy vs Brown is going to be a barn burner. So will the Griggs and Makdessi/Njoukani fight.

EDIT:added a couple outcome prediction/opinions.

I am psyched to see the Waterboy in another UFC fight but I don't know anything about Makdessi/Njoukani - I'll have to keep any eye out for that one.

Njoukani is a sick striker, and so is Makdessi. Going to be a great fight that one. :-)

I want Rashad to win but dunno if he will

Jones vs Evans -
MacDonald vs Mills
Schaub vs Rothwell
Torres vs McDonald
Hominick vs Yagin -
Bocek vs Alessio

Jones vs Evans - via TKO (elbows)
MacDonald vs Mills - via KO
Schaub vs Rothwell
Torres vs McDonald
Hominick vs Yagin
Bocek vs Alessio

Also excited to see Stephen Thompson fight again. He looks like a good prospect.
