Still working on the other picks

[txstr1986]

Cain Velasquez vs. Fabricio Werdum - for unified heavyweight title - Cain is the baddest man on the planet.

Eddie Alvarez vs. Gilbert Melendez - toss up as far as picking is concerned, but it's going to be an awesome fight

Kelvin Gastelum vs. Nate Marquardt - Nate is done and Kelvin shouldn't be having any weight cutting problems at 185...

Yair Rodriguez vs. Charles Rosa - Rodriguez won one of the weakest TUF classes ever - let's go USA

Angela Hill vs. Tecia Torres - should be fun, but I think Torres is just slightly ahead of Hill in terms of development

Chico Camus vs. Henry Cejudo - So excited for Cejudo - hopefully he makes weight.

I'm going with the Brazilian, even though I hate him. At least he actually is from Brazil and carries his flag proudly. Brown Pride on the other hand is a faggoty bitch who is as American as they come, despite how hard he tries to be Mexican. What a dick suck.

Werdum
Alverez
Gastellum
Escadaro
Whoever is fighting Pendrod. Has there ever been a less deserving fighter in the UFC? How bad do you feel if the UFC cuts you, but this fool stays on just because he's Irish?

[Technique]

Werdum all day.
Alverez
Gastellum
Yair
Tecia
Henry

I've done a 180 on who I'm rooting for. Werdum has annoyed me in the past and he's a Brazilian and Cain seems like a genuinely nice guy so I was rooting for Cain early on. But that fucking tattoo and the way the UFC markets him as the Mexican savior made me switch. The ONLY thing you should be proud of concerning Mexico is the fact that you were able to get away from it. Be proud of where you've been able to go, not the shithole from the past. Plus I want Cain to get one legit loss. I'd probably root for him if Werdum wins and they have a rematch

[ace3g]

The main event is tough, Werdum has really improved his striking and has been active going into the fight while Cain is Cain, but his last fight was in 2013.

[ace3g]

wow, momentum killing eye poke, never heard an audible scream from a fighter after eye poke

[benefactor]

:lol all those stunned Mexicans

And finishes off the interview in Spanish.

[ace3g]

another up against the cage standing guillotine

[ace3g]

well that fight was more about heart than anything else

main event time

[ace3g]

Not a good look for Cain

[ace3g]

well there it is, wasn't going to be surprised by either winning anyway

[thiste]

Couldn't really pick a favorite but this is totally deserved. Good champion.

Great win by Werdum, but I don't think he has what it takes to remain the champion. I see him the same way I saw Shogun back then when he beat Machida.

Werdum has the game to beat Cain, but Cigano or even a guy like Miocic are bad matchups for him.

[tlongII]

Dos Santos will ruin Verdum. Then Velasquez will win it back.

[Technique]

Dos Santos will ruin Verdum. Then Velasquez will win it back.

Arlovski gonna knock out Werdum and redeem his UFC glory. Why not?
