He posted his referral link on another forum that I'm on too. Lol, guess he's trying to get a bonus or something.

Still have to look at salaries, but I feel good about Rousey (duh), Palelei and Struve. Shogun/Little Nog is interesting, but I don't know there. I want to pick Shogun to finish, but it's always risky going with him these days.

I also got together with 10 other guys to do a 6 fight parlay. We throw in $5 with the potential for each of us winning $183 this week. Not really expecting to win anything there, but I figured why not. We all made picks and went with majority rules. For this week we ended up with:

Cummins
Maia
Aguilar
Palelei
Struve
Shogun

I think Gadelha is probably going to win against Aguilar, but hopefully not. I also feel like Magny has a good shot against Maia, but I think Maia was probably a safe choice.

Exactly my thoughts. I guess I am not the only one who thinks this is lame?

Also she's been very consistent about Cyborg since she was the Strikeforce champ. If Cyborg wants to fight her she has to come to 135 period. Doing a catchweight fight makes zero sense because there isnt a 145 division in the UFC.
That's because Dana doesn't want anything to happen to one of his main meal tickets. I really think Cyborg would run Rousey over. Too strong at the higher weight classes but if she drops down to 135 she will need to shed those muscles.

UFC 147 had two TUF Finale fights back in 2012 and that card only had four fights on the main card and looked like this:

Spoiler




.. at least 190 has 7 fights on the main card so if you want to look at it optimistically you're getting the TUF fights for free.

True, just not that excited over this fight card. Last one was fantastic but this one will have me reading round by round up on Sherdog for the PPV fights.
