Edson Barboza vs. Danny Castillo

Mac Danzig vs. Joe Lauzon

Bobby Green vs. Pat Healy

Roger Bowling vs. Abel Trujillo

Cody McKenzie vs. Sam Stout

Alp Ozkilic vs. Darren Uyenoyama

This card has potential despite all of the fizzled fights. A lot of close fights.

Predictions, I got Beanvidez as the new champ - R3 TKO

McDonald finishes Faber in the 2nd round, lots of talk from some that Faber should retire.

Mendez finishes Lentz and makes it look easy.

McGee wins a poor SD

Bobby Green beats Pat Healy at his own games.

Jorrgensen gets a SD in a fight he might not do much in.

J-Lo will tool Danzig in the 1st.

Castillo isn't going to find Barbosa at all tonight.

Truillo powers through, Stout I pick but have no confidence in and Uyenoyama should win but Ozkilic I hjope can surprise.

Faber is an awful matchup for McDonald. That's why I was never really feeling that at fight in the first place. Good win for Urijah, McDonald ain't quite there yet

Crap performance by Mendes who was apparently sick. Lentz still couldn't do anything

Lauzon is a totally shot fighter. He gets worked badly again the next time he fights a top 25 LW

Really impressive performances from Trujillo and Green, two standouts in the prelims

Stout with no urgency against a crap fighter and thank God Court McGee lost. Hopefully he's out of the UFC and I never have to watch him again in the near future

Benavidez just got flattened lol. I always said he's get straight broken off by Dodson, turns out MM can do it too. His style only works against guys he's faster than. Loads up too much and telegraphs. That don't fly in the flyweight division

Looks like you had an off night. I thought the card turned out pretty good. I doubt many people had Mouse by first round KO. Faber looked like he had plenty left in the tank tonight.

Yeah, Faber and Johnson were very impressive Saturday.
