This is a bad rematch IMO.. Nothing about that fight ws controversial at all.. But it will get Edgar to drop down to 45 finally..

[polandprzem]

I agree

But maybe Frankie thinks he can do way better. And if possible this fight gonna be great

[Stand]

I so want Bendo to win, but I have a bad feeling that Frankie might pull it off. Bendo was to content to let Frankie get some of those takedowns in the first fight and just depending upon how the judges see it that night it could spell the difference between winning and losing. Hopefully though Bendo will put him to sleep and make it all of a moot point.

I would also love to see Cerrone punt Guillard into next week.

[polandprzem]

If Frank gonna win this bout he is beyond amazing.

But if he losses he needs to drop down to 135

[Stringer_Bell]

Champ Benson Henderson vs. Frankie Edgar (for lightweight title) - Bendo needs to finish Frankie off. Frankie's got so much heart and spirit, but he really needs realize he lost that last fight fair/square and now he's gonna get punished. Again.
Donald Cerrone vs. Melvin Guillard - I really think Cowboy learned some valuable lessons from the Diaz fight, expect a decision but a clean performance.
Jake Shields vs. Ed Herman - Jake is back where he belongs, some good fights at MW for him if he wins. Still think he's a bitch tho lol
Yushin Okami vs. Buddy Roberts - Okami better win!!
Justin Lawrence vs. Max Holloway - could be fight of the night, gonna be a good pace I think.

MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view, 10 p.m. ET)

Champ Benson Henderson vs. Frankie Edgar (for lightweight title)
Frankly speaking Benson is a quite big favorite. But somehow I can imagine Frankie winning this, although both guys are very versatile Ban is a bigger better athlete and has more invention.


Donald Cerrone vs. Melvin Guillard
Donald sometimes forgets about defense and Melvin can collapse on it and swing Cowboys head back.


Jake Shields vs. Ed Herman
Jake is too much IMO for Herman but I wouldn't mind him losing


Yushin Okami vs. Buddy Roberts
Jeez Yushin, froma contender to a weak gate keeper?
get a grip


Justin Lawrence vs. Max Holloway
Everybody can justify Justin after that fight

[polandprzem]

Overall it's all good cause our tv shows every fight


This card I will gonna wake up for the main card only. Some really good matchups.
Hopefully fighters gonna show some nice tricks heart and desire and creativity.
Both main and co-main are gonna be awesome no doubt but the rest can occur boring.

Too many cards these days i think..

[dbreiden83080]

I'll give more in depth picks..


MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view, 10 p.m. ET)

Champ Benson Henderson vs. Frankie Edgar (for lightweight title)
This fight is probably going the distance again. Bendo basically just has to fight the same way he did last time. Bendo in the last fight was willing to conced a TD here and there because he was focusing on sitting down on his shots and doing damage. Benson needs to lump Edgar up again. Frankie always fights the same way. In and out, mostly pitter patter with the occasional TD attempt thrown in now and then. If Benson does damage again and the judges are not blind, he wins...


Donald Cerrone vs. Melvin Guillard
This is a very hard fight to pick. Skill wise they are pretty even. I'll go with Cowboy because i think Melvin is just mentally weak in big spots. This will be a striking war for as long as it lasts. I'll go with Cowboy Rd 2 stoppage..


Jake Shields vs. Ed Herman
I love all the old school TUF Guys but Ed is not elite enough to win this one. Jake is better at 85 with the easier cut. I'll go with 2nd round submission for Jake..


Yushin Okami vs. Buddy Roberts
Okami needs badly to get back on track here. He is too good to be losing the way he has of late..


Justin Lawrence vs. Max Holloway
I freely admit i have no idea who either of these guys are..
So i'll go with Max since he is a slight betting favorite..

[Horry For 3!]

Bendo!

[mercos]

Benson Henderson vs. Frankie Edgar - I think its going to be a close fight, but Frankie always comes back stronger the second time around. I like "The Answer" by decision.

Donald Cerrone vs. Melvin Guillard - Guillard has weak submission defense. I think the cowboy is going to submit him in the 1st or 2nd round.

Jake Shields vs. Ed Herman - Middleweight is a better class for Shields. He beat Hendo in his last Middleweight fight I believe, and after that Hendo went on a crazy run. Shields by decision.

[ace3g]

time to see how Shields looks back at MW

[The TroutBum]

Wow, Shields just reminded me how much I hate him. Without a doubt, the most unwatchable, unlikeable, cock suckers in the UFC. I FUCKING HATE HIM.

Melvin is the king of fast starts and then losing badly..

[dbreiden83080]

Whoever is here we may need some Rd by RD scoring for the Main Event..
