Any word yet on where the new location will be? I was really bummed when they pulled out from Indianapolis...

This is a good match-up for Silva. I hope he gets back to winning after two tough KO's by DC and Velasquez

Some interesting names on this card. Always nice to see Josh Neer scrap. The Dodson fight should be cool too. I hope Mitrione has a better performance than last time because he seemed real hesitant to pull the trigger against Kongo. Looking forward to see what improvements he's made in his game since then.

Browne and Bigfoot is a pretty sweet matchup. I feel like Browne should win, but I'd also like to see Silva rebound from his last fight. I'm good with that one either way it goes, but Browne having a dominant performance would shakeup the division a little bit.

Dodson against Formiga should be a great fight. He was the top ranked flyweight in the world until McCall beat him last year in Tachi Palace.

Silva has two straight losses, right?

Yeah but I dont think he is in any danger to get cut. HW is really shallow and he lost to Cormier and Cain.

I don't think Browne will be the favorite. Both Cain & Cormier are awesome wrestlers that could control where the fight goes, and Bigfoot is extremely chinny. Browne isn't that kind of wrestler, so I think Bigfoot should definitely be able to get him down, where he is very good.
Browne could catch him on the feet though.

The winner between John Dodson and Jussier Formiga gets an automatic title shot. Don't know much about Formiga, but he has a 14-1 record with his only loss coming to Ian McCall. I've been wanting to see Dodson and Mighty Mouse fight because watching them fly around the cage would be crazy, but I'm looking forward to see how Formiga performs too.

Formiga is awesome. Dodson didn't look great imo against Tim Elliot.
I think MM beats both to be honest though, because he is a faster version of Dodson just without the power.

I think I was more impressed with Elliot's performance than I was disappointed in Dodson's. I do agree that he has looked better though. Also, didn't be break his hand or something in that fight? I could be mixing it up with another one.

I agree with you that MM beats Dodson, but I'd love watching that one go down. I guess I'll get my first look at Formiga in a couple of days to form an opinion. If he lives up to his billing I might not see Dodson/MM for a little while.
