Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 375 Points   |   Tied for 455th

It may not be the UFC 137 you were expecting, but it's still UFC 137, dammit!

The next installment of the popular Ultimate Fighting Challenge comes to us live tonight from fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada, with a tantalizing main event between Nick Diaz and BJ Penn.

Things are scheduled to kick off first at 6:15pm eastern time (final time still unknown) for 4 prelims on Facebook.com/UFC.  Then at 8:00 eastern time you can catch a pair of excellent fights on Spike TV. Finally at 9:00pm eastern time, plunk down your hard earned dollars to watch the Pay Per View main card.

Your prediction results and leaderboard ranking will automatically show up in any posts made here. If you want to embed your full listing of picks you can do that also.   Your picks, as well as a link to embed the image, and the top of the site-wide leaderboard will all be available in the right column on this thread.

Enjoy the fights and good luck in your predictions! 

REMINDER: No requesting of or posting links to illegal streams of the Pay Per View broadcast.

REMINDER 2: as a courtesy to those not watching Bellator until later, please do not post spoilers in this thread.

Yeah I know those are on spike but usually on the ufc page on facebook it says what time they start the prelims but I don't see that right now

@soccer..I know! I can't stand it when bars do that..for 125 I remember our group was almost the only ones there for the fights and the owner comes up to ask us if we want the fights or the pre show we say the prelims then minutes later he switches it over

Last card we went to Hooters and they were showing the Spike fights then before Santiago and Maia was over they had changed all the tvs to the prefight show...I just sat there in disbelief thinking you know they won't start the ppv until this fight is over right!?!

now it's 1206.  everyone's will keep going up until all the pickin' is done.

and then everyone's will go down, down down.  except for mine... i have a pretty good feeling that tonight is the night i'm going to get the "most points on event" award.  even if i supposedly only have a 0.083% chance.
