Big boys.
I'm going with Cannonier here.
All the odds on favorites. I got the same.
Most anticipated event in recent memory. Any picks at all?
Doh! I’m off to my usual kiss of death picks =p
Who I want to win:
Cormier
Cerrone
Marquardt
Horiguchi
Burkman
Who I think will win:
Jones
Jury
Tavares
Horiguchi
Lombard
His backflip proved the old you can't judge a book by the cover saying.
Next up:
Bantamweight
Marcus Brimage (7-3) vs Cody Garbrandt (5-0)
I got Cody here.
I figured Cannonier would win but I was pulling for Jordan.
Hey Clint
Tonight I am picking Jones 1st round KO
About the same here. I like both Cormier and Jones so not sure who to root for.
Everyone hates on Jones but I like that he's soft spoken as well as highly skilled.
DC seems very hostile and thin skinned.
He sure is tough for a smaller guy.
He is like an angry black hobbit.
Tonight should be a good one!
Cody Garbrandt by KO in his UFC debut.
1-1 on my picks so far.
Next up:
Lightweight
Danny Castillo (17-7) vs Paul Felder (9-0)
I got Castillo here.
Going with Castillo too!
