The only "locks" on this card imo are Jacare, Alcantara, and maybe Lineker. Formiga is far from a lock and I actually think Cariaso will win

^ Agreed, I think Tibau is pretty locked though.

I also think Cariaso will beat Formiga. 

And I think Tibau is an easy lock aswell.

Yeah for me the hardest fight to pick on the card is Lentz/Dias but going with Dias because he trains with Nova Uniao.

Probably one of the most competitive cards of the year. In almost every fight, there is no definitive winner in my eyes except maybe for Jacare vs. Camozzi, but even that fight could surprise us all. Great card, tough picks, and it's a free card. You factor in BBQ and booze at my house this weekend, and that all equals a fantastic weekend for me. Let's just hope the picks go in my favor the way I'd like them to.

I wonder if our one and only savior Belfort had anything to say about Rockhold talking **** on his TRT use. Can't see it in the highlight vid.

@UFC Picker, yep this is looking like a great card. Excited for it. 

^ From brazilian media stuff, Belfort merely said he follows all the rules. I think this will be an awesome fight.

I think some of these other fights on the card could take any one of those awards, but those are the most likely candidates.

I noticed Lineker is a slight underdog now, how did he look at the weigh-ins? I'm thinking about dropping some money on him in addition to Vitor, Cariaso, and maybe Hacran Dias or Dunham.
