Predictions: 10 of 11 Winners, 5 Perfect, 650 Points   |   Tied for 95th

Only three fights known, and already I have a feeling this is going to be a great card.

Then again it is Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas.

Jorgensen will be a good challenge for Barao, but I have barao taking the fight.  I like Jorgy a lot tho, always been a good scrapper. Fights are fun to watch and he seems like a really good dude.

this could turn into an exceptional card with some of the fights that are on it.

they are having the press conference, sounds like the winner of the main event gets a new harley.

And Diaz says "You're likely to lose a decision to GSP, but more likely to lose your teeth vs Carlos"
