Prelims on Facebook/Youtube:  Hard to tell!  UFC.com says 7:40PM ET but perhaps they will start earlier. Be careful and watch out for an earlier start!!

Main Card on Fuel: 10PM ET.

Get your picks in and enjoy your UFC fix.

Dana White tweeted that he thought Gomi won so I doubt there's a pink slip involved (paraphrasing)

So Dana agrees and then what? Gomi has the defeat and he can't do nothing. These moments ruins this great sport.

@buffalo ben : The only round Diego lost was 1,2,3. This is what happened. Anyone who isn't blind saw it.

I want a Yahoo investigative report into the scoring of Diego Sanchez fights!!!  First Kampmann and now Gomi, and in his country, something fishy about this guy and how we wins fights.
