Predictions: 7 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 32nd with 10 others

Prelims kick off on FS2 (annoying) at 8pm ET followed by the main card on FS1 at 10pm. 

Don't miss the early fights, as they're some of the better ones on an overall decent card. 

Hope they keep Koscheck off the broadcast, though ... his desk work during the weigh-ins was truly cringeworthy.

Coming up next a fight between two top 10 guys in their division that's on the prelims because Joe ****bag fans don't respect the technicality of flyweights.

I've seen fights where people have done less from their back and gotten the nod over someone on top. Mike Pyle vs Rick Story comes to mind. 

Formiga being such a big dog in this fight is silly to me. I originally had Fun Size by decision, but I switched to Formiga just because the number of picks are so lopsided in favor of Fun Size. Formiga has been KO'd by Dodson and Benavidez and his other loss was to Uncle Creepy in Tachi. His 3 losses are basically to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th ranked flyweights in the world.

The winner of this fight will be challenging for the FlyW title in 2015. The division is wide open and a impressive performance really could put them in a No.1 contender fight or even the title fight.

It seems weird Foriga is younger than Makovski. Formiga has just seemed to be around so long.

Sparrow, entertaining so far, the only one that was a bit of a stinker was McMann and Murphy.
